3 x more daylight for the same glass area

Roof windows are a highly efficient tool to bring natural light into a space. They can admit up to 3 times more daylight than vertical dormer windows of the same size – distributing light evenly, saving energy and improving visual comfort levels. Roof windows have been shown to provide greater wall luminance than dormer and façade windows, resulting in less glare due to a softer transition between pane and wall.

The health benefits of daylight in the home

Sunlight is an environmental indicator that helps set the body’s circadian rhythm (sleep-wake cycle). It helps the brain learn when it’s time to produce melatonin for us to fall asleep and acetylcholine for when it’s time to wake up.

Ventilation is also extremely important for a good sleep. The extra oxygen that comes with fresh air results in higher brain functioning, enhanced concentration skills, and more energy.

Natural lighting and ventilation are ideal for both health and energy bill.
