To produce an accurate quotation for your conservatory - we simply require 3 pieces of information.
1. CONSERVATORY STYLE
2. EXTERIOR FLOOR SIZE
3. ROOF CHANNEL WIDTH
You can obtain this information in 3 simple steps:
1. Conservatory Styles
We need to know the STYLE of your conservatory. Which of the following designs is yours?

If your conservatory style is not displayed, call us on 01789 766880 for our assistance. Alternatively send us a sketch & brief description by email or post and on receipt we will contact you to discuss. (refer to contact us).
2. Exterior Floor Size
We need to know the EXTERIOR SIZE of your conservatory (At floor level).
- Dimension X - As indicated - (Depth 'usually from the house wall to the front of the conservatory')
- Dimension Y - As indicated - (Width 'the extreme frontage width of the conservatory')

N.B - If you have a P-Shape conservatory please treat as 2 separate areas, one as a Victorian Style and one as a Lean To, and measure each area seperately.
3. Roof Channel Width
Most importantly we require the CHANNEL WIDTH of your polycarbonate roof panels to produce an accurate quotation & supply you with the correct width of Polycool insert.

The CHANNEL WIDTH can be measured in one of two ways;
- From 'inside' the conservatory 'measure' (preferably in millimetres) the width of the channel as displayed - from 'visible tramline to visible tramline' using a ruler or measure (or if you have a Polycool brochure using the self-survey form).
OR
- Alternatively, from the gutter edge, remove one of the 'endcaps' and measure the 'top channel width' and if possible top channel depth.
N.B - If you are taking details from your conservatory plans, please note the size quoted will be the thickness of the polycarbonate sheet and not the channel width.

The polycarbonate sample enclosed with the free information pack is a 'typical' 20mm wide channel x 16mm thick 'triple wall' polycarbonate design.
