Setting a really nice temperature in your attic conversion
Some rooms in the home don’t really respond all that well to conditions outside in terms of the general climate. It is often the case, for instance, that loft bedrooms or offices situated in the attic are out of reach of your central heating in the winter, but see a great deal of sun in the summer.
Both offices and bedrooms necessarily have to be comfortable because of the uses we have for them. They are made either for periods of hard work and concentration of for periods of relaxation. A cold office is counterproductive whilst a cold bedroom is just generally uninviting.
Of course, if your attic office is too warm then you might struggle to find the motivation to get anything done and if your attic bedroom is too hot then you might avoid spending time in there at all. These are issues that you need to rectify if you want your loft conversion to become a really useful space.
A couple of well-chosen appliances are all you really need to sort out the conditions in your loft conversion regardless of its primary use. For example, heat pumps vastly improve conditions with regard to added warmth if you find that your central heating doesn’t have any effect so high up in the home.
Conversely, during the summer, it’s reasonable to expect that opening a few windows won’t successfully reverse the effect of constant exposure of the roof to the warm sun during the day. Air conditioning units are the most sensible appliances to invest in in this event to cool the room down effectively.
By investing in these bits of kit, you’ll find that you make much more use of your loft conversion and you won’t resist the opportunity to spend more time up there, whether to relax in your bedroom or to get a few important tasks done in your office.
The Uk may not be known for its warm summers unlike Europe, but there are a surprising number of people with outdoor pools. Some of these are heated using pool heat pumps. For information, advice and help visit the www.comfortableclimate.co.uk web site.
