Why Energy Efficiency Matters in Modern Roof Systems
As energy prices continue to rise, more homeowners are looking for ways to reduce heat loss and create spaces that are comfortable all year round. The roof plays one of the biggest roles in this — and that’s where modern energy-efficient roof systems from Contech Conservatories come in.
From Stratus Aluminium Roof Lanterns to Wendland Glass Roofs, SupaLite Tiled Roofs, and Infinity Rooflights, every product we manufacture or supply is built with thermal performance and sustainability at its core.
Energy Efficiency Starts at the Top
Older conservatories and extensions often lose up to 25% of their heat through the roof. Modern roof systems prevent this with thermally broken aluminium, multi-layer insulation, and low-emissivity (Low-E) glazing that reflects heat back into the home.
All Contech systems are engineered for year-round comfort — warm in winter, cool in summer — helping you lower your energy bills and your carbon footprint.
How Our Products Deliver Superior Thermal Performance
Stratus Aluminium Roof Lanterns: Designed with a fully thermally broken aluminium frame, Stratus reduces heat transfer while allowing maximum natural light.
Wendland Glass Roofs: Feature advanced glazing options, including solar control glass and Argon-filled units, achieving low U-values for outstanding insulation.
SupaLite Tiled Roofs: Lightweight solid roofs with high-density insulation for exceptional energy retention.
Infinity Flat Rooflights: Use Thermal Super Spacer technology to improve sound and thermal performance.
