Winter, spring, summer or autumn – whatever the season, it’s important that your garden office space or bespoke garden room is warm, inviting and somewhere you want to spend time. Whether you’re sitting at a computer or going that extra mile on a running machine, you’ll want your extra space to be at a comfortable temperature at all times without costing the earth.
At HomeWorks we make it our priority to ensure that every garden room we create is efficient to run, saving you ££££s and doing your bit for the planet too.
Ventilation, climate control glazing, insulation and heating systems all have their part to play in making a stand-alone garden room warm enough for the winter months, yet cool enough to enjoy or work productively in during the heat of summer. Regrettably though, standard garden room designers can all too often get it wrong.
That’s where a bespoke HomeWorks installation is different. As building and glazing specialists with years of experience in helping customers to make their homes more energy efficient, we include hi-spec insulation and ‘clever’ glazing as an integral part of the build and never as an after-thought. Even if you live in a modern home, there’s a good chance that your garden room will be significantly more energy efficient than your main property. Now how’s that for a feel good factor?
Super insulation is key to using less electricity, reducing CO2 emissions and lowering your energy bills. We only use the best methods and insulation products for heat retention to comply with or exceed building regulation requirements. Walls, floors and ceilings are insulated using super-efficient rigid thermal and acoustic slab insulation. This keeps heat in when it is cold outside and works the opposite way in hot conditions.
Highly efficient glazed doors and window units are your all-important ‘wall’ of glass, bringing the garden and precious natural light into your home office or garden room space. Whatever combination of windows with opening lights and sliding patio or bi-folding doors you choose, the HomeWorks team can make sure that it really delivers not just in terms of good looks and smooth moving mechanisms, but in terms of energy efficiency too.
At HomeWorks we can install a range of integrated heating systems in garden rooms which deliver the extra warmth you need, when you want it without sacrificing that precious stylish space including:
Underfloor heating – for radiator-free walls and feel-warm factor from toe to tip! Wall mounted temperature controls or remote smart control systems.
Log burners – because there’s nothing like the glow of a real fire…
Electric or oil-filled heating systems with thermostatic controls – accessible, fast heating method which can operate on a timing system to ensure that your garden room office is invitingly cosy even on cold mornings. Powering all sorts of space-saving radiator options – slimline radiators, floor-to-ceiling radiators, concealed radiators (behind mirrors etc.)
