Celsius Conservatory Glass

celcius Performance Glass

Technology that has been rigorously tested and put through its paces lies at the centre of K2 Glass's Celsius range having been specially developed by them. They have in excess of 35 years of experience in producing glass and have grown to become one of the biggest manufacturers of glass worldwide.

Customers considering purchasing a conservatory are becoming more aware of just how beneficial performance glass can be due to products like Celsius Elite, Celsius One and Celsius Clear.

The Range

It was in 2003 that the Celsius range came to market taking conservatory glass to a new level of increased performance and industry standard.

The complete range offers a U-value not exceeding 1.0 and high UV protection of up to 94% resulting in the range of Celsius Elite, Celsius One and Celsius Clear leading the market providing glazing to meet the majority of situations for both frames and roofs.

Celsius One

Celsius One sets the standard in conservatory performance glass.

The combination of performance and the blue tint adds to the appearance of your new conservatory and you will discover you will be more comfortable and therefore be able to use your conservatory for longer periods during cooler weather than if you had used another blue glass or standard glass.

Celsius One will undoubtedly make you change both the way and when you use your new conservatory.

Celsius Elite

Celsius Elite is the Rolls Royce of performance glazing for conservatories with its strong blue colour bringing out colours in your garden without the room becoming darker. From outside the tint is more obvious providing a feeling of warmth and cosiness to the conservatory. The Celsius Elite is the preferred choice for a south facing exposed conservatory to provide better comfort.

Celsius Clear

Celsius Clear is ideal for the frames of the conservatory being an excellent alternative to that of cleat standard glass.

Its neutral tint doesn't prohibit light coming through but it will ensure superior protection when compared with standard glass. If Celsius One or Celsius Elite is to be used for the roof then Celsius Clear is recommended for maximum performance resulting in excellent comfort in your conservatory.

However, if you have a North facing conservatory Celsius Clear may be more suitable for the roof as, in the winter, more light will come through.

Q Which performance glass would be recommended for a conservatory for a house that faces North?
A

As a house and conservatory facing North would appreciate some additional light Celsius Clear would be the preferred option as maximum light infiltration is provided. The conservatory's interior would still benefit from the likes of good heat retention.

A house and conservatory facing South that receives the maximum amount of light and sun would benefit from either Celsius Elite or Celsius One providing additional anti-glare and solar protection.

Of course, the overriding deciding factor is the preference of the customer but the above Celsius options provide a complete solution for performance glazing.
