Does anyone have any experience of this? Reason being, we are thinking of having our conservatory roof replaced with this solar reflective glass. The roof we have at the moment is double panel plastic-y stuff and it cuts down the light and feels quite claustrophobic - plus the conservatory gets really hot in the summer. It's quite pricy though and I thought I'd ask around to see if it's worth forking out - or not.

Anyone who can give a qualified opinion would be much appreciated. Thank you :D

If you are going to put glass in a conservatory roof it has to be laminate on toughened I've never seen solar reflection glass but I have been retired for nine years it may be a new thing ,I've seen a lot of anti sun glass fitted but for me roof blinds are as good as anything , I did have over thirty years working in the installation side of various replacement window companies
