VAST ATLAS SKYROOM IS A FIRST
South Wales-based Atlas approved installer Vale Orangeries has installed
its first Skyroom. Not only was the installation at a former school house
in the South Wales valleys the largest Skyroom installation ever, it was
also a winner in the coveted Atlas Installation of the Month competition.
The vast 9x3 metre dual colour Skyroom beat off stiff
competition to be the April
winner in the competition,
which was launched last
year to commend the best
Atlas orangery, conservatory and rooflight installations. The project impressed
the judging panel because
of its scale and how it has
dramatically transformed
the appearance of the property.
The owners had carefully
renovated the school house and
wanted to replace their tired PVCu
conservatory with a traditional
orangery that would span the entire width of the building. Keen to
improve the flow of rooms within
their home and to maximise the
sense of space and light, the own-
ers approached Vale Orangeries to
discuss design ideas.
The team presented two options
- a conventional orangery and an
Atlas Skyroom. The customer was
immediately drawn to the contemporary features of the Skyroom, its
realistic orangery appearance and
its superior thermal performance,
essential for such a large, open
plan structure.
Vale Orangeries demolished the
original conservatory and managed the build, which took around
eight weeks. The company built
the large extension, which features
dual colour aluminium windows
and bi-folding doors from Atlas’
sister company Customade, and
created two openings from the
original dining room and kitchen into the new Skyroom. The
Skyroom roof was then installed
in just two days. With its slimmer
sightlines and unique dummy
ringbeam design, the Skyroom
has improved the quality of light
within the property and complemented the period features of the
building.
In the Atlas Installation of the
Month competition, the winning
installer each month scoops a
£200 Screwfix voucher and a £50
Majestic Wine voucher, plus trade
industry PR and entry into the
award finals. All entries submitted
with completed installation pictures
receive an Atlas thermal mug.
