Modern conservatory roofs
The ALIPLAST® profile family’s modern looking roof structures are the ALIVER 1000, 2000, 5000 systems with increased heat insulation feature. The gutters joined profile system and the outside beams allow direct, heat insulated connection with the vertical walls of the conservatory . The pieces of the ridge and the gutter have articulated links, so the roof pitch can be chosen (between 5 – 45 degree) at will. The pitch can be calculated from catalogue or with computer program depending on the loadbearing pieces’ spans. The rafters can be reinforced from the inside if necessary with aluminium or steel profiles. The leading of the precipitation is hidden into the columns. The covering of Aliplast roof structures can be made with hollow poly-carbonate or multi-layered glass boards. The gutter edges and bottom can be ornamented and there are two different curtain rails for the inside.
Advantages of modern winter gardens:
They fit houses with the modern, minimal style.
Cheaper than decorated, possibly Victorian, winter gardens.
All thermal insulation versions can be implemented in the structure. (1, 2 and 3 layers of glazing)
Frameless, sliding glass walls also fit the structure stylishly.
Rectangular roof units can be shaded cheaper, countless shading systems are available.
Any kind of opening solutions for doors and windows is available. (folding, opening, folding-opening, sliding, folding-sliding, accordion...)
It is esthetical and tasteful in any colour, even extreme colours, if it harmonizes with the house or garden.
Tinted glass or foiled glass also looks good next to these profiles.
Disadvantages of modern winter gardens:
It does not fit older, classic or classicizing buildings.
Roof ridge or parapet decoration is not stylish.
