Things to know about skylights

Skylights are windows installed on the roof or ceiling of a building to allow natural light to enter the interior space. They are designed to bring the beauty and warmth of natural sunlight into rooms and provide a view of the sky. Skylights come in various shapes, sizes, and styles, offering a versatile solution for introducing natural light and enhancing the aesthetics of both residential and commercial spaces.

 

Why is Natural Light Important?

Natural light is not only visually appealing but also plays a vital role in our overall well-being. Exposure to natural light has been linked to numerous health benefits, including improved mood, increased productivity, better sleep quality, and enhanced vitamin D production. It helps regulate our circadian rhythm, the internal body clock that influences our sleep-wake cycle and other bodily functions. Natural light also provides a full spectrum of lighting that cannot be replicated by artificial sources, creating a more visually accurate and pleasant environment.

By harnessing the power of natural sunlight, skylights create bright and inviting environments, reduce the need for artificial lighting, and provide a connection to the outdoors.

 

Features and Benefits of Skylights

Skylights offer several key features and benefits, including:

  • Natural light: Skylights are designed to maximize the amount of natural light that enters a space, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere. They can significantly reduce the need for artificial lighting during daylight hours.
  • Ventilation: Many skylights are designed to be operable, allowing fresh air to flow into the space. Ventilated skylights can help improve indoor air quality, regulate temperature, and provide natural ventilation.
  • View of the sky: Skylights provide a unique opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the sky from within the comfort of a building. They offer a connection to the outdoors, bringing a sense of openness and nature into the space.
  • Energy efficiency: Skylights can contribute to energy efficiency by reducing the need for artificial lighting and potentially reducing the reliance on mechanical cooling systems during daylight hours.
  • Aesthetics: Skylights add architectural interest to a building, enhancing its visual appeal and creating a focal point. They can transform ordinary rooms into vibrant and airy spaces.
  • Well-being: Exposure to natural light has been shown to have numerous benefits for human well-being, including improved mood, productivity, and overall health. Skylights help bring the positive effects of natural light into indoor spaces.
  • UV protection: Many skylights are designed with UV-filtering properties, reducing the potential for furniture, flooring, and other interior elements to fade or deteriorate due to prolonged exposure to sunlight.

In conclusion, skylights offer a versatile and aesthetically pleasing solution to bring natural light into interior spaces. With their ability to maximize daylight, skylights provide numerous benefits such as energy savings, improved well-being, and enhanced aesthetics.
