Questions from Forres
Do orangery lanterns come with cresting?
They can. Cresting and finials are options on traditional ranges.
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.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Forres?
With the midsummer sun about 55.8° high at noon, roof glass in Forres gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Forres?
Your local authority building standards (verifier) service. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
