Instructions For Installing Sky Lights

When you are installing skylights in your house there are a few steps you need to follow so that you can do it properly. The first thing you will need to do is look for the appropriate location in your house. Once you have done this you should make sure you clear out the attic space so that there will be no obstructions in the place where you want to place your skylight. You should then drill a small hole in the ceiling from the top using a small nail. You should mark the ceiling with a pencil so that you can place it in the correct position. Cut along the pencil lines using a key hole saw. After this you can insert the frame of the ceiling and attach the screw and lugs that are provided. Make sure you fasten them so that they can be stable and tight. To make the process much simper you should choose the most direct route to reach the roof for the tubing. This is because shorter tubes make the skylights work better. Remove the part of the roof that you do not want and insert the skylight where you had made the hole. Make sure you remove the protective film in the stainless rings.
