Looking at buying a house with a brick built conservatory, so brick base to waist height then full upvc double glazed windows and doors on 3 sides; 11' 3 by 5' 6". Has an electric radiator installed. I'm not a fan of conservatories in general but it's in very good condition. The roof is currently made of two sheets of clear corrugated plastic so I am thinking along the old "too hot in summer too cold in winter lines" - what can I do? I can't afford to have a proper roof put on; someone said about a thicker plastic roof or coating the plastic with something to give some insulation?
What's the cheapest way to manage it? Any experiences?
