VELUX | VELUX Roofing | Skylights

Welcome to the VELUX category on Roofing4US, where we showcase a premier selection of skylight solutions designed to enhance your living or working space with natural light and fresh air. VELUX is known for its innovation, quality, and range of products tailored to fit various needs and preferences. Whether you're looking to add a fresh air skylight to your kitchen, a fixed skylight to a hallway, or a Sun Tunnel® Skylight to brighten a dark room, VELUX has a solution for every scenario. Let's explore the different types of VELUX products available and how to choose the right one for your needs.

VELUX Skylights

VELUX skylights come in several types, each designed for specific applications:

• Solar Powered and Electric Fresh Air Skylights: Ideal for rooms where ventilation and fresh air are desired alongside natural light. These skylights open and close with the touch of a button, making them perfect for hard-to-reach areas.
• Manual Fresh Air Skylights: A more traditional option, these require manual operation but still offer the benefit of ventilation and natural light. They can be opened and closed with the help of a control rod when out of reach or a crank handle when they are within reach.
• Fixed Skylights: For areas where natural light is the main requirement without the need for ventilation, fixed skylights are an excellent choice.

Each type of skylight also comes with dual-pane argon-filled Low-E3 glass that is energy-efficient and blocks out 95-99% of UV rays.

Sun Tunnel® Skylights

For spaces where a traditional skylight isn't feasible, Sun Tunnel® skylights offer a versatile solution. They channel sunlight through a reflective tube from the roof to your ceiling, brightening up any room with natural light. Available with either flexible or rigid tubes, Sun Tunnel® skylights are perfect for interior rooms where the roof is very far above the ceiling in the room.

VELUX Roof Windows

VELUX roof windows are designed for more than just bringing in light; they offer functionality and access:

• Center-Pivot, Top-Hinged, and Roof Access Windows: These are fantastic for adding light and air to attic spaces, bonus rooms, or lofts. Some Top-Hinged and Roof Access models are large enough to satisfy egress requirements for emergency escape.
• Balcony and Terrace Windows: Transform attic spaces with a roof window that opens both upward and outward to create a balcony, offering breathtaking views and extra ventilation.

Choosing the Right VELUX Product

When selecting a VELUX product, consider the following:

• Location and Purpose: Determine where you'll install the skylight and what you want to achieve: ventilation, light, or both.
• Operation Type: Consider whether you prefer the convenience of an electric or solar-powered model or the simplicity of a manual skylight.
• Size and Type: Think about the size of the space you're illuminating. Larger areas might benefit from bigger skylights or multiple Sun Tunnel® Skylights.

Accessories and Installation of VELUX Design

VELUX offers a range of accessories, including blinds, remote controls, and manual control rods, to enhance the functionality and control over your skylight. Proper installation is crucial for maximizing the benefits of your VELUX skylight, including energy efficiency, water tightness, and longevity. Ensure you choose the right flashing kit for your roof type to achieve a seamless installation.
