Frosted Skylight
Clear glass skylights are an excellent choice for many applications in residential and commercial properties but in some cases, a frosted skylight is a much better option. In bathrooms, meeting rooms and any other space where privacy is a concern, frosted glass will prevent anyone from seeing inside while still allowing plenty of light into the room. In addition to protecting your privacy, a frosted glass skylight has a number of other benefits to offer, details of which you can find below.

Why Install a Frosted Rooflight or Skylight?
Most people are aware of the privacy benefits that a frosted roof lantern, rooflight or skylight has to offer but why else might you prefer frosted over clear glazing?
No Glare – For skylights that receive a lot of direct sunlight throughout the course of each day, frosted glass is often a better choice than clear glass. Even in strong sunlight, you won’t have to worry about glare.
UV Protection – Frosted glass acts as a filter for sunlight, preventing many of the potentially harmful UV rays from penetrating your home or commercial premises. This can help to reduce colour fading on any furniture in the room where the skylight is installed.
Hides Unsightly Smears and Streaks – Clear glass skylights are not difficult to keep clean but a frosted skylight is even easier. The frosted glass hides streaks and smears, which means you don’t have to clean it as often. And when you do clean it, you don’t have to worry too much about your wiping technique because the frosted surface will hide any mistakes.
