Vivid Skylights’ Roof Skylight Design Features
Roof skylights are particularly effective in high-ceilinged spaces where traditional windows might fall short, offering a diffused and evenly distributed light. Installing them in south-facing roofs maximises daylight capture, enhancing illumination throughout the day. By placing multiple roof skylights in a room or combining them with traditional windows, you achieve optimal lighting and an inviting ambience. Unexpected placements, like in hallways or bathrooms, add a surprising element of elegance.
Our roof skylight designs at Vivid Skylights are crafted to bring abundant natural light into your home, enhancing both its architectural appeal and energy efficiency. These skylights are positioned to capture natural light optimally, filling your space with a soft, inviting glow. Each roof skylight is a unique architectural element, offering:
- Abundant Natural Light: Strategically placed to illuminate even the darkest corners, creating openness and spaciousness.
- Energy-Efficient Glazing: Reduces reliance on artificial lighting, contributing to lower energy consumption.
- Variety of Shapes and Styles: Complements any architectural style, from sleek rectangular to traditional square shapes.
- Integrated Ventilation: Ideal for removing stale air, especially in kitchens and bathrooms.
Benefits of Double Glazed Skylights
Double glazed skylights are a superior choice for ceiling windows, offering a multitude of advantages for your home. Their unique design significantly improves energy efficiency by trapping an air layer between two panes of glass, which reduces heat transfer. This results in lower energy bills and a more comfortable indoor environment, regardless of the season.
- Reduced Noise Transmission: The air layer in double glazed skylights also acts as a sound barrier, effectively reducing noise from the outside.
- Improved Thermal Comfort: These skylights offer superior insulation, preventing condensation and maintaining a consistent indoor temperature.
Additionally, double glazed skylights help in reducing glare and heat gain, a critical feature for spaces with high ceilings where sunlight can be intense. They also boast enhanced structural integrity, providing greater protection against harsh weather conditions. Importantly, the double glazing blocks harmful ultraviolet rays, safeguarding your interior furnishings from sun damage. Plus, with reduced maintenance requirements compared to single-glazed options, double glazed skylights are a cost-effective, long-term solution for bringing natural light into your home.
Let Fresh Air and Natural Light In with Operable Skylights
Our operable skylights provide the perfect combination of convenience, functionality, and added benefits for your home. Designed and manufactured to suit Australian conditions, these skylights offer controllable ventilation and an abundance of daylight with an easy-to-use remote. The ED950950 is a prime example, fitting perfectly into a 850w x 850h (mm) frame opening. You can also add full blockout blinds for each skylight.
- Automated Convenience: Enjoy the luxury of remote control operation and a wireless rain sensor for automatic closing during rain.
- Energy Efficient and Secure: Double glazed glass with a U-Value of 2.63 and SHGC of 0.73 ensures energy efficiency, while the flyscreen keeps bugs out.
Our operable skylights are not only easy to install but also come with a roof flashing kit for tiled roofs, although they can be installed on metal roofs with a custom-made flashing (not supplied). Their top frameless design prevents water pooling in low pitch roof applications, and they are suitable for roofs with pitches between 15 – 45 degrees. For a hassle-free experience, you can use our Skylight Pricing Estimator for installation cost estimates. Enhance your home with the modern convenience and aesthetic appeal of Vivid Skylights’ operable skylights.
The Strength and Elegance of Laminated Skylights
Our laminated skylights offer a blend of safety, durability, and aesthetic appeal, making them a standout choice for any Australian home. The safety aspect is paramount, with the skylights designed to be shatter-resistant. Composed of multiple glass layers bonded with a polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayer, they significantly reduce the risk of injury by preventing the glass from shattering into sharp fragments upon impact.
- Enhanced Protection: Laminated skylights offer improved resistance to damage from external objects like hail or branches.
- Structural Integrity: Even when cracked, the PVB interlayer holds the glass together, maintaining the skylight’s integrity.
In terms of durability, laminated skylights are more resilient to impact and extreme weather, with the PVB interlayer offering additional strength and moisture resistance. They also reduce noise transmission, contributing to a more peaceful indoor environment. The aesthetic appeal is unmatched, as they come in various sleek and modern styles. The exceptional clarity of laminated skylights allows unobstructed views and natural light, while the UV protection feature guards your interiors against sun damage. Opt for laminated skylights to elevate the look and functionality of your home.
