Questions from Totton
Do I still need to clean self-cleaning glass?
Occasionally. It keeps the glass cleaner for longer, but heavy dirt and droppings still need a gentle rinse, especially in dry spells.
Does it work under trees?
Less well. Sap and leaf debris build up faster than daylight and rain can deal with them, so lanterns under trees need more regular rinsing.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Totton?
With the midsummer sun about 62.5° high at noon, roof glass in Totton gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
