I'M ABOUT TO BUY A NEW CONSERVATORY AND I AM UNSURE WHETHER TO HAVE A GLASS ROOF OR OPT FOR THE POLYCARBONATE. COST IS NOT THE ISSUE. I WISH TO KNOW WHETHER GLASS IS THE BEST OPTION WITH REGARDS HEAT, NOISE WEAR & TEAR ETC. ETC. PLEASE HELP. THANKS. DORIAN

Something I am looking into. I have polycarbonate and I want the best installation. I was told that a special glass roofing was best with blue film. No idea what it is called. It cools the Conser..down in the summer and gives best insulation in the winter..

GLASS, without question.

do a few search on here about it, been many a posting.


Heat - about the same as good multi- chambered poly if not better.
Noise - less.
Wear and tear - less.
Longevity - more.
Looks - more.
Stength of overal structure - much improved.
Maintenace - less.
Looks - better.
