Is glass better than 'double layered shatterproof polycarbonate glazing'?
Also are there good alternatives to electric cable heating if needed?
If not I will get the electrician in, as I like Sandy's set up.
Thank you

Personally I dont think there is a lot to choose for retaining heat between poly or glass.
I think the real bonus with glass is its heavy and you dont have to anchor it down. But it can break.
Poly does not break, but will in time crumble, and is easily blown away:0)
So its just really down to what suits you:0)
As for electrics no other way than use an electrician for safety:0)
