Why Choose a VELUX Skylight?
EXTERIOR
HEAT CONTROL – The best protection against heat gain is an exterior awning
that stops heat before it hits the glass and penetrates the room.
WEATHERTIGHT FLASHINGS – Leakproof flashings are essential for ensuring the
integrity of every skylight. That is why we have been offering prefabricated
VELUX flashing systems compatible with most roofing materials for more than
50 years.
COMFORT GLAZINGS – Comfort glazing is standard in all VELUX skylights.
Comfort glazing allows you comfort on hot summer days and on cold winter
nights.
SKYLIGHTS AND ROOF WINDOWS – For rooms where natural light and fresh air are
desirable, VELUX offers a wide assortment of skylights and roof windows to
meet any need regardless of the roof material, roof pitch, construction
method or ceiling type.
VELUX SUN TUNNEL™ SKYLIGHTS – For those applications where natural light is
desirable, but a view to the outside is unnecessary, VELUX offers the SUN
TUNNEL skylight. This product, available in flexible or rigid models, can
bring natural light into places that were previously impossible to reach.
INTERIOR LIGHT CONTROL – A huge assortment of blinds and shades are
available to diffuse, adjust or block out the light in your room. Blinds
will also save you money on your energy bill.
CONVENIENT CONTROLS – Convenient control of skylights and blinds is
available through our manual telescopic rods and electric infrared remote
controlled systems.
VELUX creates better living
environments with daylight and fresh air through the roof. Their product programme contains a wide range of roof windows and skylights, along with
solutions for flat roofs. In addition, VELUX offers many types of decoration
and sun screening, roller shutters, installation products, products for
remote control and thermal solar panels for installation in roofs. VELUX,
which has manufacturing companies in 10 countries and sales companies in
just under 40 countries, is one of the strongest brands in the global
building materials sector and its products are sold in most parts of the
world.
Quality, development and improvement are important keywords at VELUX.
This is especially true in their test department, where products are
continuously exposed to all kinds of tests as an integral part of our
company’s efforts to develop and improve their products.
Energy Efficiency
With energy rates increasing at an alarming rate across the country,
homeowners are demanding that the products they put in their homes be energy
efficient. VELUX is answering those demands. Unlike any other skylight
manufacturer, all of their skylights meet ENERGY STAR® approval guidelines in
all climate zones throughout the country, and they are 40% more efficient
than most national building codes require. This means that they promote
energy efficiency, saving you money on utility bills - all while enhancing
the look of your living space.
By using Velux' complete system of daylighting products, you will be able to
control the light and heat gain to the level with which you are comfortable.
