Glazing : Solar control
The direction in which your conservatory faces will dictate what type of glass would be most appropriate. A north-facing conservatory will have a different glass requirement to a southwest-facing one simply because it is exposed to less direct sunlight.
High performance glass can prove very expensive - choosing solar control glass to keep you warm in winter and cool in summer can cost as much as £3,000 more than you would pay for standard double-glazing. However, this investment can prove very worthwhile.

Scientific tests completed at the height of summer show that standard double glazed conservatories can reach temperatures of 149° F rendering the building inhabitable. Solar glass will reduce the room temperature by 64°F, leaving the interior only 10°F greater than the temperature outside. If you add comfort cooling, or air conditioning, you can reduce the temperate even further to create the ultimate climate-controlled environment.
