Rising Above Your Expectations

Performance Standards

Custom Sized

Each rooflight can be manufactured to suit the required opening size and project specification.

Wind Load Resistance

Published third-party test data indicates dependable wind-load performance for exposed rooflight applications.

Air Permeability

Designed to help reduce uncontrolled air leakage while supporting overall building envelope performance.

Laminated Inner Pane

Laminated inner panes support a non-fragility-focused rooflight build-up for safer overhead glazing applications.

Fire Performance

Available in 30- or 60-minute fire-resistance configurations based on documented third-party certification and test data. Confirm acceptance with the authority having jurisdiction for the project.

Thermal Performance

Approximate U-factor options as low as 0.19 are available, with configurations that can support R-values around 5.4 to 6.2 depending on the build-up.

Acoustic Rating

Provides acoustic performance up to 39 dB where sound control is part of the design brief.

Non-Fragile Glass

Non-fragile glass construction helps maintain safe performance under impact conditions.

your questions answered

Common questions

Planning and permitting requirements vary by jurisdiction in the United States. The project team should confirm local code and approval requirements before installation.
Yes. The SkyView range uses a thermally broken construction to help limit heat transfer through the frame and improve overall thermal performance.
The upstand should be fully weathered to at least 5.9 in. above the roof surface at its lowest point.
Published third-party test data supports the referenced air permeability, weather performance, and wind-resistance claims. For North American projects, the results should be reviewed alongside local code and specification requirements.

Why You Need an

Insulated Upstand

An insulated upstand helps improve the thermal performance of the SkyView assembly and supports a more robust installation detail at the roof opening. It contributes to better insulation continuity, helps reduce condensation risk, and creates a clean interface between the roof structure and the rooflight.

Superior Performance

Glazing Options

Multiple glazing specifications are available to balance daylight, energy performance, solar control, and maintenance needs. Standard construction includes laminated inner panes and non-fragile glass, while upgraded insulating glass units, self-cleaning coatings, and solar-control glass can be specified to suit the project.
