3 Glazing is one of
the most important factors to consider. Real glass provides superior thermal
and optical properties, won't yellow or fade, and is much less susceptible
to leakage than acrylic panels after extended exposure to the harsh effects
of an outdoor environment. |
4 Depending on the angle
of your roof and the material used to cover it, our online store carries
a wide selection of FAKRO & VELUX products. Selection of the right match of frame
to your roofing material will ensure years of trouble free use and enjoyment. |

5 The placement, size
and angle of your skylight is a consideration on how you may wish to control
the light entering. With the use of shades and blinds the amount of light
blocked or diffused can be varied, creating the right mood and comfort
level for your space. |
6 Depending on the location
of your skylight and any sunscreening options you can control one or multiple
windows. Use either a manual control rod/ handle or electrically wired
remote system. |
