VELUX Skylights vs. VELUX Roof Windows: Key Differences and Benefits
Understanding the difference between VELUX skylights and VELUX roof windows is essential when choosing the best solution for natural light, ventilation, and aesthetic enhancement in your home or business. Here’s a breakdown of their design, functionality, and installation to help you make an informed decision:
VELUX Skylights: Natural Light and Simplicity
​
-
Design: A VELUX skylight is a window installed directly into the roof, designed to bring in natural light. Skylights are often fixed, meaning they do not open, though operable models are available for limited ventilation.
-
Function: Skylights are ideal for spaces where you want to introduce light without the need for additional ventilation, such as hallways, bathrooms, or smaller rooms. They are often more compact and are designed to provide a clear view of the sky.
-
Installation: Typically, VELUX skylights are installed at an angle or pitch in the roof to capture maximum sunlight and offer an unobstructed view of the sky.
​
VELUX Roof Windows: Light, Ventilation, and Functionality
​
-
Design: A VELUX roof window is a larger, operable window installed within the slope of a roof. Unlike skylights, roof windows can open to allow for ventilation, either manually or electronically.
-
Function: Roof windows offer the benefit of both light and ventilation. They are perfect for spaces like attics, lofts, and top-floor rooms where airflow is important. A VELUX roof window can enhance the comfort of a space by providing fresh air and sunlight simultaneously.
-
Installation: VELUX roof windows are installed at a lower pitch than skylights and often resemble traditional windows in their operation. This makes them a versatile option for those seeking both light and ventilation.
​
In Summary: VELUX Skylights vs. Roof Windows
​
In conclusion, VELUX skylights are fixed windows focused primarily on bringing in light, making them ideal for spaces that don't require ventilation. On the other hand, VELUX roof windows are larger, operable, and provide both natural light and the ability to open for ventilation, making them perfect for attics, lofts, and rooms where airflow is important.
Whether you choose a VELUX skylight or a VELUX roof window, both options from Moore Skylights Inc. will bring energy-efficient, durable solutions that enhance your home’s aesthetic, light, and ventilation.
