Questions from Barnes
What is the difference between an orangery and a conservatory?
A conservatory has a mostly glazed roof; an orangery has a mostly solid roof with a lantern in the middle and usually more solid wall. Orangeries are easier to keep comfortable year round.
Can I add a lantern to my existing orangery roof?
If the roof has a suitable opening and upstand, yes. If not, the roof needs structural alteration first, which is a job for a builder with an engineer's input.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Barnes?
With the midsummer sun about 62.0° high at noon, roof glass in Barnes gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
