A conservatory is an exempt building as far as Building Control are concerned and so doesn't require their involvement so long as over 50 % of the EXTERNAL walls are transparent and 75% of the roof, its less than 30m2 and the doors remain between the house and the conservatory at a level at least as good as the rest of the external doors, the heating system hasn't been extended into it.[/quote]
I can never understand that bit & I have read it before.
Doesn't ever conservatory need a rad for use apart from the summer ?0 -
I believe that you can have heating but it needs to have a valve to make it independant from the rest of the radiators (i.e it can be turned off).
Hope that helps

the heating system needs to be independant not just independantly controllable.0
