  • Forgive me if I have this muddled up, but did we have a conversation a while back when I was still designing my shed about heat build up in the summer?

    Now that mine is in place and has been through winter and summer, I can confirm that when the sun shines directly through the bifold doors, because it is so well insulated it gets very hot very quickly and rather uncomfortable. Thankfully for us as its north facing this doesn't happen until about 5pm, (a useful reminder to stop working) so not so bad, but if it was south facing and exposed I'm not sure how useable it would be without an air conditioning unit and/or UV glass.

    Just something to bare in mind @Tenderloin

  • Yeah - we might have done. It was definitely a massive issue with ours which was south facing... made it unusable on some days.

    It's something we sort of encountered in our current house as the kitchen is south facing and gets really warm.

    We've solved it with this stuff. Takes 50% of UV heat out of the room which is enough to make it usable even in the recent 30 degree days.

  • I really must order the film, but keep forgetting when it pishes down again.
    Attic bedrooms get too hot with South facing Velux windows.
