It is cold outside, but inside the greenhouse it is nice and warm. With a Solar Innovations, inc. greenhouse you can grow plants year round.  Even with snow outside, we’re able to grow plants at our Pennsylvania facility. The addition of heaters does the trick and provides the plants with a comfortable environment. Potting benches also create great places to water plants, store materials, and re-pot root-bound flowers.

Solar Innovations recently installed flooring in the conservatory attached to our manufacturing facility. The floor was originally just a concrete slab, but we recently replaced it with duraceramic tile for its resilience and warmth under foot. 
Duracermaic tiles will not break as easily as their ceramic counterparts and have a Scotchguard coating to protect against stains and water droplets that may accumulate from the various plants that call the conservatory home. A neutral color was selected to match the framing and blends with the decor that changes. 
The result looks is a classically styled conservatory filled with texture, color, and form.

A conservatory can create an intimate dining space. Tables, chairs, and a chandelier can be used for warming the space to entertain friends and family.
