One way to ensure that you maximise the amount of
available light is to increase the size of your rooflights…
or is it? Just because you have a large rooflight this does
not always guarantee lots of light and you should always
check what the finished viewable (often referred to as
clear viewable) area of the rooflight will be. You might
think that a conservation rooflight with a whole frame
size of 900mm (w) x 1200mm (h) would have a similar
clear viewable area regardless of the manufacturer, but
you would be wrong and bulky framed modern types or
the flat rooflights posing as pitched conservation styles
will let in considerably less light than a genuine steel
framed version.
With so many choices available, choosing the right
conservation rooflight can be a bit of a minefield but with
the right guidance and advice it need not be a stressful
experience.
