The
skylight window is more than just what the name implies. It is a large window fitted in a loft space and provides good, natural lighting to a large area, even mezzanine spaces. It is often used to make a small room appear larger and more ventilated.
You can have either in-reach or out-of-reach windows installed. Roof skylight windows are usually top-hinged and hence provide maximum ventilation. If you require more daylight, go for balcony roof skylights. These transform closed or unused spaces into airy and open areas. Top-hinged windows have a little edge over balcony skylights – they are easy to be reversed and cleaned; sometimes are equipped with sun-screening for greater energy efficiency.
Besides the obvious benefits of light and ventilation, skylight windows provide other advantages such as an ideal emergency escape window in case of crises. They are also energy efficient and can reduce your expenditure on cooling. What more, you can choose from a variety of styles, and with options of customizing to say, attach an insect barrier screen if required.
Lastly, skylight windows bring a great look to your home. They make the home look larger, brighter and livelier. Therefore, skylight windows are a great way to add the sensible modern touch to your home.
