What are the types of skylights available?

Skylights come in several types including fixed, ventilated (which can open for air flow), and tubular, each suited to different installation needs and preferences.

Can skylights be opened?

Yes, some skylights are designed to open either manually or with electric or solar-powered mechanisms, providing ventilation along with natural light.

Are skylights energy efficient?

Modern skylights are designed to be energy efficient, often featuring double-glazing, tinting, and low-emissivity coatings to minimize heat loss and gain.

What is the best placement for a skylight?

The placement depends on your building’s orientation, the climate, and where you need light. North-facing skylights provide constant but cool illumination, while south-facing skylights bring in the most light and potential solar heat.

How do I choose the right size skylight?

The size should be based on the room’s size and your lighting needs. A common rule is that the skylight size should be 5-10% of the floor area in rooms with many windows and up to 15% in rooms with few windows.

What are the common materials used for skylights?

Skylight frames are typically made from aluminum, wood, or PVC, with glazing in acrylic, polycarbonate, or glass.

How long do skylights last?

Properly installed and maintained skylights can last between 10 to 20 years, depending on the materials and environmental conditions.

What maintenance is required for skylights?

Regular cleaning of the glass and inspection of seals and flashing will help maintain the integrity and performance of skylights.

Can skylights be installed in any type of roof?

Skylights can be installed in most roof types, including flat and pitched roofs, but the installation method and style may vary depending on the roof structure.

What should I do if a skylight leaks?

Check for any cracks in the glass or issues with the flashing or sealant. In many cases, resealing the skylight or replacing the flashing can fix the leak. If the problem persists, consult a professional.
