Are you looking for ways to make your home more sustainable? Energy prices are high, and heating a property has never been so expensive. If you are looking into sustainable living and want to make your home more energy efficient, we can help! Based in Fife, SRJ Sunrooms installs energy efficient and bespoke orangeries across a wide range of areas in Fife, Dundee, Stirling, Edinburgh, Perth and many more.
Originating in 16th-century Italy, authentic glass orangeries were used as a space to grow oranges and other exotic fruits. Traditionally, orangeries were only found on the grounds of mansions and stately homes. A symbol of wealth and status, orangeries were once exclusive to the upper classes and royalty.
Over the centuries, orangeries have become more cost-effective and versatile. No longer just used as a place to grow oranges and plants, modern orangeries have a multitude of purposes. Homeowners can use their orangery space as a home office, children’s playroom, additional dining space, and much more. 21st-century orangeries are inspired by the traditional 16th-century glass and brick structures but include several modern features and customisable designs.
At SRJ Sunrooms, we install tailor made orangeries manufactured with advanced double glazing and high grade materials. They are built to offer reliable long term performance.
By investing in an SRJ orangery installation, you can expand your home and create an energy efficient, multi-purpose space. Here are the main benefits of choosing an orangery as your next home improvement project:
A double glazed orangery is the perfect solution. Built with large double glazed glass panels, SRJ orangeries are also flooded with natural light. The large glazing panels and glass roof will keep your space bright with an airy atmosphere, meaning you won’t need to rely on electrical lighting throughout the day. These bright spaces are the perfect place to sit back and relax, enjoying peaceful moments basking in glorious sunlight.
Alongside more natural light, the large glazing panels can significantly reduce heat loss. If you are striving towards more sustainable living, cutting your energy usage is a great place to start. The high spec glazing we use is designed to offer effective temperature control throughout every season. SRJ orangeries, when heated, stay warm during the winter months while also maintaining a comfortable temperature throughout the summer. Made from high grade materials, the rest of the orangery structure will also offer effective insulation for your new space.
Your chosen roof system can significantly impact the thermal performance of an orangery. At SRJ Sunrooms, we use the market-leading Ultrasky roof for maximum energy efficiency. This glass roof features a slim framework, inviting maximum levels of natural light into the space below. The sleek Ultrasky roof will boost the thermal performance of your orangery space, ensuring it doesn’t become too cold or too warm. The thermally broken, slimline frames work with the advanced double glazing to offer unbeatable temperature regulation.
