Thinking about investing in a winter garden but not sure what to watch out for? The construction of a winter garden is a significant investment, and quality is a key feature. A high-quality winter garden brings long-term satisfaction. In this article, we will highlight the differences between high-quality and low-quality winter gardens to help you make the right decision in your selection.
1. The guarantee of durability and longevity lies in quality materials and paint
The first step is choosing the right material. Different materials offer various technical possibilities, so it's essential to consider your expectations. Specifically, for the construction of a winter garden, it is crucial to use high-quality materials. Aluminum frames are more resistant to corrosion and ensure the strength and stability of the entire structure. After all, the primary benefit of a winter garden lies in using the terrace even outside the season. Therefore, we recommend focusing on products boasting high-quality aluminum construction, ensuring excellent stability.
In addition to the material, pay attention to colors and coatings. Apart from their aesthetic function, they also serve a protective purpose. Colors used in MontAlu have a subtle texture, providing resistance to abrasion and weather conditions. We also focus on quality control, so we spray the colors in our own paint shop. We have a rich palette of colors to choose from, and if you're looking for something specific, we also offer custom RAL colors.
2. Individual parts make up the puzzle
After selecting the material, focus on the individual parts that will constitute the structure. It is essential to distinguish between the assembly company and the manufacturer of assembly parts. The assembly company usually does not guarantee the quality of the parts used. Gather enough information about the suppliers of parts and their philosophy. At MontAlu, we manufacture all the parts we supply in our products. We guarantee fast assembly, and we stand behind the quality of the final product, offering a 5-year warranty on our products.
3. Everything relies on thorough installation
You have chosen quality material and functional parts, but these components must be correctly installed for the winter garden to function properly. Adhering to standards during installation is crucial for the long-term utility of the winter garden. When selecting an assembly company, consider their construction team to ensure that everything goes according to your expectations. We recommend reading references or results of previous works to ensure that only experienced professionals will work on your project. If you cannot find enough information and outputs, be cautious. A quality company should not be ashamed of its work.
4. Much more is hidden in the speed of delivery
Every client wants their winter garden to be constructed as quickly as possible. However, the speed of delivery reveals the materials the company is working with. If the delivery takes too long, the material probably isn't in stock and is purchased only after your order. This could mean potential complications in delivery if the company sources materials from afar or abroad. The ideal solution is a company that is also the manufacturer of the parts, just like MontAlu. However, it's crucial to inquire directly with the supplier. A longer realization time may indicate a quality but busy company. Especially during the season, manufacturers may struggle to keep up, but in this case, it's worth waiting for quality.
5. Aesthetics sell
In addition to the practical side of the investment, pay attention to its appearance. The first impression is crucial, even for winter gardens. Winter garden models that are timeless and aesthetic increase the value of the property. When acquiring a winter garden, think ahead and consider how the design can influence the market price of the property. Companies offering various color variations ensure uniqueness in the form of an exceptional appearance of the final realization. At MontAlu, we also produce atypical shapes. If you have unique requirements and seek uniqueness, we are ready to implement your project.
6. Consider energy efficiency
Once you've chosen the design, think about energy savings, one of the most important attributes today. Seasonal winter gardens with insulated glass have sufficient insulation properties to minimize heat loss in mild conditions. However, be cautious with seasonal winter gardens, as they are not suitable for year-round use but rather for weekend gatherings with friends and family.
To ensure comfort in your winter garden, it's crucial to maintain a stable and comfortable temperature. The most effective heating element is, of course, the sun, but in winter, there isn't enough of it to heat the winter garden adequately. When building a new winter garden, we recommend incorporating a heat source into the floor or adding a radiator to the wall. Of course, alternative heating sources such as electric radiators, infrared panels, or a fireplace can also be added.
7. References cannot be deceived
The ideal way to determine if a selected company is reliable is by reading references. Opinions and feelings of previous clients cannot be deceived, so thoroughly study them. If you cannot find reviews on the company's website, it's likely a scam, or the company cannot provide quality samples of their work. MontAlu's philosophy revolves around satisfaction with the result, especially ensuring that the winter garden meets the attributes of efficiency and functionality.
In conclusion, we would like to emphasize once again that it is crucial to focus on the recommendations mentioned above when deciding to invest in a winter garden. If you choose to invest in a winter garden, selecting the right partner for your project is key. Don't settle for less, and choose a company that meets all your requirements. With a precise selection, you can avoid unpleasant situations associated with unprofessional behavior or complaints about poor installation quality.
