Please note size you purchase from the drop down menu on the website is based on the external upstand dimensions. If you purchase a 1000mm by 1000mm from our website then your external upstand dimension would be 1000mm by 1000mm. We have 20mm tolerance all around built into our sizes so if your external dimensions were 1020mm by 1020mm this would still fit. The width of your upstand should be 75mm wide.
Acceptable tolerance:
- Fixed Flat Glass Rooflight = rooflight size (External Upstand) +20/-0mm
Please note self-clean option is only offered with some sizes and only works effectively at pitches of 10 degrees and above.
A minimum of 5 degree pitch is required. At times customers may choose to install at lower than the recommended pitch. If installed on a lower pitch, we recommend pouring water over the top to ensure you’re ok with how the water is flowing off before the rooflight is installed. The purpose of the rooflight pitch is to allow the water/dirt to flow off and ensure maximum benefit of self-clean coating this option is selected. If installed completely flat water could pool on the top of the rooflight glass which won’t affect the performance or cause leaking, but you could be left with visible water when looking up at the skylight. If a glass Rooflight is installed below this recommended pitch then the Warranty would still be valid and this won’t affect the performance, however, you may experience ponding of water

Do I need to maintain my framed skylight?
Framed skylights are a beautiful way to add natural light to your home, but they require some special care to keep them looking their best.
Here are a couple of quick tips for maintaining your framed skylight.
Firstly, be sure to clean the glass regularly with a mild soap and water solution. You may also need to use a window cleaner on occasion to remove tough dirt and grime.
Secondly, inspect the frame and sealant regularly for any cracks or damage. If you see any damage, be sure to repair it promptly to prevent further deterioration.
What is self-cleaning glass?
Self-cleaning glass is a type of glass that is coated with a special material that helps to repel dirt, dust, and water. The coating is made up of titanium dioxide and other compounds that react with sunlight to create a charge that helps to break down organic matter. As a result, self-cleaning glass stays cleaner for longer and requires less maintenance than traditional skylights. In addition, the coating also helps to reduce glare and heat loss, making it an ideal choice for eco-friendly homes.
