Solarlux by Reveal

As experts in glass structures, Solarlux by Reveal can help homeowners transform their property with the addition of a high-quality fully glazed extension. It will flood their living space with natural light, blend the boundaries between indoors and out, and make the most of the views from their home.

The company’s wintergarden glass extensions offer exceptional quality and are highly insulated, energy efficient and built to last a lifetime. The superb thermal properties of these modern conservatories allow for year-round comfort. Using cutting-edge ‘thermal break’ technology and high performance glass, they maintain the perfect temperature inside, whatever the weather outside.

A glass extension can therefore be used by all the family every day. It could be a stylish dining kitchen, a bright and fun family room, a cosy retreat, a home office, personal gym or spa.

Each glass extension is custom made to individual specifications so customers can design something that’s personal and unique to them. They have the freedom to create additional living space that not only suits their aesthetic preferences but meets their practical needs too.

A luxury glass extension will flood their home with light, and offer panoramic views of the outdoors, blending the boundaries between home and garden. During the warmer months, the sliding doors or bi-folds at the sides of the glass extension can be opened up to bring the whole space together as one.

Solarlux’s bespoke wintergarden glass extensions can fulfil both simple and complex solutions. They are a modern-style conservatory or orangery that can be designed to complement any style of property. From a wrap-around glass structure to a p-shaped home extension, a large conservatory that runs across the full width of the house or a more modest one that transforms the home, a bespoke Solarlux wintergarden is ideal.

When designing their bespoke glass extension with Solarlux by Reveal, customers can choose from a wealth of glass roof shapes, glazing options, colours and materials. They can add their choice of large glass walls or doors up to 6 metres high and 4 metres wide.

But what sets Solarlux by Reveal apart from the rest? It’s a combination of high-quality, market-leading products with the knowledge and expertise of their team.

While on the surface there would seem to be a wide range of glass extensions, glass rooms, glass boxes and other glass structures out there, it’s a very varied landscape. There’s a huge difference in terms of quality, durability, thermal performance, engineering, functionality and ease of maintenance. Solarlux products are at the very top end of the scale, trusted by homeowners, architects and builders across the world. Here are just a few reasons why:

• The thermal efficiency of their glass extensions is so exceptional that their U values can meet passive house standards.
• The glass they use has been extensively tested to ensure it meets strict standards for safety and security. Solarlux is recognised as a leader in glass systems that can withstand extreme wind and snow loads.
• The aluminium frame of their glass extensions provides strength and durability, with options for additional coatings to protect from harsh environments such as coastal or high altitude areas.
• Their glass extensions are a one-system design, which means that every single component has been precision-engineered to fit perfectly with the rest. This means that the glass roof can combine with any fixed or moveable glazing at the sides.
• Because all elements of Solarlux by Reveal glass extensions are made and installed by their team, one warranty covers any issues for ten years. Not a single part of any Solarlux glass extension is manufactured anywhere else apart from the company’s single factory in Germany.
• Their sliding doors and bi-folds can be specified with a low, flush or zero threshold for full accessibility and future proofing. It also adds to the seamless flow between the inside and outside space when the glass doors are open.
• In conservation areas and national parks, Solarlux glass extensions are a great solution for homeowners needing to fulfil strict criteria and rules aimed at protecting heritage, landscape and ecology.
• Solarlux are one of very few manufacturers to offer timber bi-folding doors. These bespoke bi-folds are made from sustainably-sourced timber, with UW values that far exceed current building regulations.

Take a look, too, at some of the things that set the Solarlux by Reveal team apart:

• They have a wealth of expertise in the glazing industry and can deliver on complex projects that require additional considerations such as in extreme environments.
• Their Yorkshire-based specialists include an in-house structural engineer and qualified surveying team with the latest survey tool to measure to the required strict tolerances.
• They are unusual in offering a free complimentary aftercare service, one year after installation of the glass extension to check that everything is in order.
• They have a proven record of delivering high-quality glass extensions across Yorkshire.
