Orangery Flat Roof
Orangery Flat Roof
For new build and refurbishments
The span is a high-end flat roof solution that is popular for creating beautiful orangeries with a central lantern or skylight. It is built around a warm roof construction to cause the least amount of disruption, a pre-assembled concept that has made our roofs so popular.
Orangery Flat Roof
Solid by name and by nature
Orangery Flat Roofs combine traditional roofing materials with clever design solutions to create a lightweight, efficient product that can be used for replacement or new extensions. Performance: U-Value: 0.17 ( o.15)– fall: 1:40 (approx. 0.7 degree) to ensure water drainage as per BS6229 requirements.
Energy Efficient
Thermal Insulation
The Orangery Flat Roof has a thermal insulation layer between the ceiling joists, so everything above the insulation (any roof space) is colder than the living space below it. To avoid condensation, a span is built with well-ventilated empty spaces (just like a traditional roof). We ensure that the “cold” from the roof is kept well away from the room by using 155mm EPS insulation.
