Climate Control in Conservatories
Appeal recently commissioned an independent study by leading environmental consultancy Faber Maunsell to examine the thermal effect of various types of blinds in a conservatory throughout the year.
Evidence from the study shows:
• For a typical hot summer day in July, the addition of blinds to the conservatory can significantly reduce internal temperatures by up to 8°c.
• Alu-Pleat® and Solar R® blind fabrics, both exclusive to Appeal, offer the highest reduction in internal temperatures.
• Blinds covering the conservatory roof are 3 times more effective at reducing internal temperatures than blinds covering the side windows.
Conservatory Climate Control, Blinds & Shading
Solar R® Blinds
Solar R® is a revolutionary fabric developed by Appeal to provide highly effective conservatory climate control, year round. Solar R® is an innovative roller blind that retracts into a tidy cassette box. Solar R® blinds reduce the need for expensive air conditioning and heating by reflecting an unrivalled 85 percent of the sun’s heat in summer and by providing useful insulation in the winter.
Alu-Pleat® Blinds — Exclusive to Appeal
Perfect for conservatory shading, Alu-Pleat® combines the same technologically advanced fabric as Solar R® with an attractive pleated texture to create a high performance product suitable for all types of conservatories. It features an impressive 85 percent heat reflection, which is the highest available on the market so you can enjoy your conservatory all year round whatever the weather.
Appeal’s Pleated Blinds
Appeal offer a modern, stylish range of pleated blinds available in a range of colours, so you will always find a design to suit your interior decor and taste. Our pleated blind range incorporates Appeal’s exclusive Perma-Pleat® system which helps to maintain equal pleating without the need for constant operation. In addition, specialist Anti-Fanning ensures the blinds sit completely flat against the frame when retracted so they always look tidy.
Venetian Blinds
The thin slats used in Appeal Aluminium Venetian Blinds are designed to retract neatly allowing you to control the shading and privacy you require. Appeal Venetian blinds sit flush against the glass, even when you open your windows.
