How much can conservatory insulation save you each year?

A conservatory that’s too hot, too cold or constantly damp isn’t just inconvenient, it could also be costing you more than you realise. Whether it’s increased energy bills or wasted square footage, the true price of an uninsulated conservatory adds up fast.

So how much can you save by upgrading to Ambivo’s Conservaheat insulation system? Let’s break it down.

‍

1. Lower Energy Bills

‍The biggest impact comes from improved thermal efficiency. Conservatories attached to your home act like a heat sieve if left uninsulated. The warmth from nearby rooms is pulled into the conservatory and lost through the roof, meaning your boiler has to work harder.

By installing Conservaheat, heat stays where you want it. Our customers regularly report heating reductions of up to 25% in adjoining rooms. That can translate to savings of £200 to £400 a year, depending on your home size and energy use.

To put this into perspective:

• A typical three-bedroom semi-detached home in the UK spends around £1,500 a year on energy (based on Ofgem average consumption data from 2023).
• If your conservatory is drawing heat from your main living space, it could be adding up to £350 to your bill unnecessarily.
• Proper insulation could cut that back significantly. One Ambivo customer in Warwickshire reported saving £36 per month across the winter season—nearly £220 from October to March alone.

2. No VAT to Pay

‍Because insulation is classed as an energy-saving home improvement, it’s currently exempt from VAT. That’s an immediate 20% saving on your project, which helps you recoup your investment even faster.

‍

3. Avoiding the Need for a Full Roof Replacement

‍Some homeowners think the only fix for a failing conservatory is a complete new roof. That’s a costly and disruptive option. Ambivo offers a smarter alternative.

With Conservaheat, you retain your existing roof structure but improve its thermal performance dramatically. You get the benefits of a tiled roof at a fraction of the cost—and without any structural changes or planning permission.

4. Increased Property Appeal

‍A year-round usable conservatory is a big plus for buyers. If you ever sell your home, an insulated conservatory adds usable square footage that feels like part of the house, not an awkward bolt-on.

Plus, an energy-efficient home is more attractive in today’s market, with rising awareness around running costs and environmental impact.

5. More Value from Your Space

‍Think about how much you paid for that conservatory. Now think about how often you actually use it. If it’s only functional for a few months of the year, you’re not getting your money’s worth.

Insulating your conservatory transforms it into a true living space. Whether you turn it into a second lounge, a dining area, or a home office, you unlock more value from your home with zero additional square footage.

‍

The Bottom Line

‍Conservatory insulation isn’t just about comfort. It’s about reclaiming space, saving money, and making your home work harder for you. And with Ambivo, the whole process is simple, mess-free, and finished in under a day.

You’ll feel the difference from day one—and start seeing the savings in every energy bill after that.
