Air Conditioning for Conservatories

In this chapter we have discussed air conditioning for conservatories and how they generate thermostatically controlled hot and cold air into your conservatory at low running costs.

Air Conditioning and Heating for conservatories

Having purchased your conservatory have you thought of how you are going to heat and cool it? During the summer months having blinds fitted is very important but they will only help to prevent solar gain i.e. if you sit below a sheet of glass in the sun you will get hot, solar blinds will help to prevent that, but they cannot reduce the temperature of your conservatory.

Air conditioning keeps your conservatory cool let me give you an example, if the temperature outside your conservatory is 80 degrees I would expect the temperature inside your conservatory to be 80 degrees plus, that's a bit hot do I hear you say, well with air conditioning you stay cool.

Its make sense to have air conditioning. Due to increased global warming we nearly all work in air conditioned offices or shops. We eat in air conditioned restaurants, travel in air conditioned coaches, planes and boats and complain when the air conditioning has not been switched on because we get too hot. So why deprive yourself at home have air conditioning installed in your conservatory and be comfortable.

De-Humidifying

Another feature of these air conditioning units is that they have the ability to extract moisture from the air of the room that they are installed in, at a rate of 2 pints per hour.

Filtering

Internal filters which filter and trap dust bacteria and pollen, via an ionising unit, which is absolutely ideal if someone in the family suffers with an allergy or Hay fever.

Conservatory air conditioning works hand in glove with conservatory blinds. The blinds prevent the solar gain and the air conditioning keeps your conservatory at a temperature that is comfortable for you, just set the remote thermostat and that it, cool air!

The flip side of air conditioning systems is that they also generate heat from the one unit, so during the chilly evenings you can just set the temperature to say 20 degs this will then keep the conservatory at that temperature. This is due to a gizmo called a heat pump, which is very efficient and above all cheap to run. These units sit on the outside of your conservatory and are whisper quite when running. Therefore you don’t have to purchase heaters or extend your central heating system to heat your conservatory; you can have one of these systems installed at about the same cost as extending your central heating system.
