Frequently Asked Questions about Roof Lanterns
A fantastic option is provided by roof lanterns. They can be a beautiful architectural addition to your home and do a better job of letting light in from all directions than their flat counterparts. The addition of a lantern roof light will provide the impression of more space.
As long as the following approved development standards are adhered to, a roof lantern installation is often not subject to planning approval. Roof lanterns cannot rise more than 150 millimetres beyond the roof’s pitch. Roof lanterns are not permitted to be more than one-third of the roof’s peak height.
Because of the extensive glazing in their construction, roof lanterns are susceptible to environmental sounds like traffic and rain.
Roof lanterns run the same risk of overheating in the summer and freezing in the winter, much like conservatories. Triple glazing can help retain heat during the winter, while low-g glass can help keep things cool during the summer.
Roof windows, or skylights, are installed at the same angle in the roof. Roof lanterns are constructed from many glass panels that are affixed at an angle and sit above flat roofs to give the impression of more height.
The installation of brand-new skylights can significantly increase the market value of your property. This little improvement can have a significant influence on both your utility bills and the home’s resale value.
