    Insulate Your Patio As you may have already guessed, insulated patio roof panels are specially designed for insulation. Our insulated patio roof panels are made in polystyrene foam core and available in different thicknesses to deliver on your desired insulation rating. The many air bubbles in the foam help break up the heat and create a barrier to ward off extreme heat in the hotter months of Summer. Furthermore, this barrier also works the other way to retain a comfortable level of heat for your patio. This gives you an excellent solution for a cozy patio, even in autumn and winter!

These panels are an example of a sandwich-structured composite, and its main draw is the strength and lightness of the technology. We use sandwich roof panels in our patio construction to create a robust, cost-effective structure that will help with regular temperatures and provide shade.

    FAQs
    What is the best insulation for a metal roof?

    There are many forms of insulation for roofs out there, but it’s really hard to beat insulated roof panels in Sydney. In these panels, both the roofing and the insulation is included for a comprehensive all in one solution: with all the benefits of a metal roof and insulation. It is an ideal choice if you are looking for a roof for your patio, veranda or pergola.
    Alternatively, if you already have roofing installed already, spray foam makes a popular option for metal roof insulation. It does cost more than fibreglass batts, but it is very effective in keeping out rodents and preventing condensation and all the problems that come with it, like weak walls and mould. Fibreglass batts is known as a cheap alternative if you are worried about costs. Although fibreglass is very versatile and can be cut to size, it’s dangerous to use and should only be installed by a professional.

    How do you install downlights in insulated roof panels?
    “To install downlights in your insulated roof panel in Sydney you are going to need a hole saw facing drill, a pocket knife and possibly a long length drill bit.

    1. Use your hole saw facing drill on the bottom face of the panel to cut out a precise hole for the light socket to fit into. You can either place the light close to a side end of the panel or in the middle.
    2. Use the pocket knife to cut out a hole to thread the cables from the light to the channel you drilled out if the light is placed in the middle, or to thread down the side grooves of the insulation foam otherwise. You may also need to use the pocket knife to cut out some extra areas in the light socket hole to make the fixture fit, for example the clips.
    3. Special note: If you want to put a light in the middle, you are also going to need a long drill bit in order to cut out an empty channel to run the cable of the light through.
    4. You are good to fit the new light/s in!

    If you have any doubt at all about your ability to do this, don’t risk jeopardising your new insulated roof panels. At Austek Home Improvements, we provide a holistic service and can send out a professional team to properly customise, outfit and install your insulated roof panels.”
