About Velux Light
Light and air can transform a lifeless roof space into an attractive living environment, pleasing to the senses and enjoyable to live in.
The VELUX system not only provides better light distribution and ventilation than most, it also offers a wide, flexible choice of products.
To ensure maximum light transmittance, the roof opening should be formed with horizontal and vertical splays as shown in the illustration. This will ensure optimum distribution of light. A pale color will also reflect more light therefore the color of the VELUX linings is white for maximum light admittance.
VELUX recommends that the daylight area be at least 10% of the floor area.
The distribution of light within a room is also affected by the number of windows and the daylight area. 

Ventilation
In domestic use, normal living conditions generate a certain amount of moisture and thus the possibility of condensation. Frequent ventilation and a suitable, constant room temperature will reduce air humidity and improve indoor climate.
The VS skylight is the perfect solution for easily openable skylights in out-of-reach applications. Insect screen is included, and electric controls are available for remote control of the skylight. 

Skylights
VELUX Skylights are constructed for out-of-reach installation. VELUX Skylights bring more than just light into your home. Skylights make any room feel more spacious and lift spirits throughout the seasons. VELUX Skylights also provide additional comfort through a choice of Comfort Low-E insulated glass or ComfortPlus Low-E, laminated insulated glass. The unique Low-E coating allows for maximum light and views while protecting against heat gain and UV rays.
For durability, weather-tightness and energy efficiency, our Skylights are quality constructed with a select wood frame and a gasket system to drain any condensation to the outside. Our Skylights also feature a streamlined exterior with a smooth, low-profile that does not obstruct your roofline. Pre-drilled frame insures easy installation of optional electric operator and sun-screening accessories.
Our Skylights are available in a wide range of sizes and are suitable for installation with all roofing materials on roof pitches between 15° and 85°
