At present we have pleated fabric roof blinds in our conservatory that cost a fortune, don't really work very well in keeping solar temperature gain down on sunny days and have become tatty in only a few years use. So I'm considering 'solar foil inserts' slotted inside the polycarbonate panels of the conservatory roof.
Product suppliers claim 80% and upwards "solar heat rejection" which sounds a lot but how effective are they in practice?
Are they as easy to fit as claimed?
Any 'gotchas' to be wary of?
Recommendations re products and suppliers?
Alternatives to achieve the goal of making the conservatory more usable in mid-summer?
