With years of experience, The Glass Room Company have installed and provided many Louvered roofs across Cambridge. Louvered roofs also known as Louvered pergolas are outdoor framed structures that rotate allowing the roof to open and close. They are most commonly featured in restaurant, decks, hotels and large patios. They are either attached to the main building or freestanding structures. Louvred roofs are built to provide shade and rain protection but can also improve the aesthetic appeal of an outdoor space.

When built with a bioclimatic roof, pergolas are outdoor living spaces that can be enjoyed all through the summer in Cambridge.
A clever update to the classic louvred/pergola roof, bioclimatic roofs make changing shade and ventilation levels easy. These louvers can be adjusted to let in more air when it is hot and keep more heat in winter temperatures drop. On the remote there are four preset louver positions but the louvers can be changed between the different levels.

Extras like electric heating, LED lighting and outdoor blinds.
To reduce the sound of the rain on the roof and also to help maintain the heat during the winter months, internal blade insulation can be added within the louvers.

Over recent years we have used different parasols to try and provide some shade in the summer, but they never shaded everyone and were of no use in the rain.
The designAt first, The Glass Room Company liaised with the client over email and telephone to provide some initial concepts and details of the PergoTex textile roof system. The reason for us recommending the use of this system was because of the client’s need to shade a larger area, as well as provide rain protection.
