Question about Conservatory - Should I be worried?

[v12017]

Hi everyone,

My offer has been accepted on a house, but I'm curious about the conservatory. Appreciate I probably should have asked these questions a long time ago.

What I'm trying to figure out is:

1. Does the conservatory meet building regulations because it has a radiator, and
2. Will the conservatory be usable in the winter, or will it be too cold?

I have saved pictures on a link:

Thanks in advance for your help :)

We have a 6m by 3m conservatory, though we have glass ceiling rather than polycarbonate (I don't know what difference that makes to heat - poly may be noisy when it rains?). We have two radiators (1.8m long and 0.7m long) and are very glad of them in winter! I don't think it strictly passes planning, but would not remove the radiators as they are necessary in the morning. If you want to use the conservatory before say midday in winter I'd say they're essential :)

As long as you are paying for house+conservatory not extended house I don't see the problem.

There are doors separating the conservatory from the house. You can have heating in a conservatory but strictly it's not meant to be on the same system/thermostat as your house.
