The benefits of a roof lantern

Is your kitchen-diner, single-storey extension or garage conversion dark and dingy? Do you have to turn on the lights almost all day every day?

A roof lantern is the perfect way to bring light into a room where natural light may be limited.

You may believe that roof lanterns or skylights are either too expensive or too ‘industrial’ for your home – but with today’s modern PVC-U technology, they offer great value for money and match perfectly with your existing windows and doors.

There are a number of benefits when it comes to skylights and roof lanterns. These include:

• A brighter, lighter room
• A reduction in energy bills
• The illusion of more space
• Exposure to natural light
• Added value to your home

A roof lantern is basically a window in the ceiling. Its chief purpose is to inject the room below with light. If this room is currently dependent on artificial light and lacking in potential window space, you will immediately enjoy the benefits of a roof lantern. As you are far less likely to need to turn the lights on during the day, your electricity bills will go down, particularly during the summer months. A roof lantern will also help lower your carbon footprint and, with its exceptional thermally-efficient properties, keep your room warmer.

A lighter, brighter room results in the illusion of additional space. With every corner flooded with light, a room will feel larger.

Exposure to natural light comes with a whole of host of benefits. Natural light boosts the immune system and energy levels and enables our bodies to produce Vitamin D. Vitamin D is essential in maintaining healthy bones, muscles and metabolism.

Increased natural light can also increase productivity – perfect if the room is a kitchen or used as a work space
