Conservatory Heating

    Hi,

    I have underfloor Heating in our Downstairs which works very well in all rooms downstairs except the Conservatory.
    We have Individual Thermostats in each room and in the other rooms they work perfectly. However the Conservatory struggles to maintain the Temperature that the Thermostat is set at.
    If we set it at 18 degrees it could regularly be 17.5 or drop to even as low as 15 even if thought he Underfloor Heating is set to ON 24/7.
    The House was a new build in 2006 and looking at getting extra insulation
    into the Timber Roof of the Conservatory which will hopefully be completed in the next 2 weeks. The windows are Double Glazed and I have sealed
    any gap I could see with Silicone Sealant.
    If the extra insulation does not improve matters what else could I look at to rectify this pproblem. The Floor does get hot and he plumber does not beleive there is any problem with the Underfloor Heating in this room

    The room is just losing heat faster than it is getting it from the heating system. The insulation might help.

    Would you consider an electric radiant heater (like the ones you see outside bars and cafes)? That would quickly make the place feel warmer when you are sitting in there.

    Was gonna say that. Too much glass. Too much cold.

    Stove or infrared heater
