Conservatory Cooling + Solar in York
Conservatories become unusable ovens for three months a year. A small split AC unit makes the space comfortable again, and a modest solar array on the house roof covers its running cost from the same sunshine causing the heat. In York, where summer highs regularly reach 27°C, the case for cooling is clear, and the same sun driving that heat can power it.

Built for 27°C summers
York homes, many built to retain heat, now face sustained summer peaks. A correctly-sized 1 split unit for the conservatory makes the difference between an unusable room and a comfortable one.
Solar in York
The Yorkshire sun is enough
A 2 to 3 kWp solar array in York generates plenty on the hot days you need it most, covering daytime cooling load with surplus to spare.
Questions, answered
Is a conservatory worth cooling?
If you use it as living space, yes. A single split unit can take a 35°C conservatory down to 22°C and effectively add a usable room for the summer.
