FAQ
There are several types of roof lights available, each with its unique features and benefits. The choice of roof light largely depends on the type of roof and the specific needs of the space.
Roof lights for flat roofs, as the name suggests, are designed for flat roofs. They provide a sleek, modern look and can be fixed or operable.
Lantern roof lights, also known as roof lanterns, are a popular choice for extensions and orangeries. They add a touch of elegance and allow light to enter from multiple angles.
Light tunnels, also known as sun tunnels or solar tubes, are a great solution for windowless spaces. They use reflective tubes to channel natural light from the roof into the room below.
Here are some common types of roof lights:
- Flat glass rooflights
- Roof lights lanterns
- Light tunnels
- Dome roof lights
- Pyramid roof lights
Roof lights are windows installed in the roof of a building. They are designed to allow natural light to flood into the interior spaces.
There’s a subtle difference between roof lights, skylights, and roof windows. While these terms are often used interchangeably, flat roof light windows are typically operable and installed in line with the roof’s pitch. Skylights, on the other hand, can be fixed or operable and may be installed at an angle.
Installing flat roof lights comes with several benefits. They can dramatically increase the amount of natural light in a room, creating a brighter, more inviting space.
Moreover, flat glass roof lights can contribute to energy savings by reducing the need for artificial lighting during the day. They also play a role in thermal efficiency, helping to regulate indoor temperatures.
Roof lights offer a plethora of advantages. They introduce more natural light into your home, which can improve your mood and reduce the need for artificial lighting, saving on energy costs. High-quality roof lights are designed to be energy-efficient, with features like double glazing and thermal breaks to keep your home well insulated.
Energy Efficiency: When it comes to energy efficiency, roof lights can play a significant role. They can provide natural warmth from the sun during cooler months and, if properly designed, minimize heat gain during the warmer months. Energy-efficient roof lights, such as those with double-glazed units or thermally broken aluminium frames, help to maintain a comfortable indoor climate while reducing energy consumption.
Glazing Options
There are several glazing options available for roof lights, including:
- Double glazed: Two panes of glass with a space in between for insulation.
- Triple glazed: Three panes of glass for even better thermal performance.
- Tinted or reflective coatings: These can provide additional solar control and privacy.
Customization: Many manufacturers offer custom glazing solutions to meet specific needs, such as enhanced noise reduction or impact resistance.
Cleaning: Regular cleaning is necessary to maintain the clarity and performance of your roof lights. Use a mild soap and water solution and avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the glass.
Inspections: Conduct periodic inspections to check for any signs of damage or wear, such as cracks or sealant failures. Early detection can prevent more significant issues down the line.
