Questions from Castlereagh
Is aluminium recyclable?
Yes, aluminium can be recycled repeatedly. Ask your local waste site about the glass and seals, which are handled separately.
Do aluminium lanterns get cold and drip?
Thermally broken frames are designed to reduce cold bridging. Condensation can still form if a room is very humid and poorly ventilated, which is why kitchens and bathrooms need extract ventilation.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Castlereagh?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your district council before ordering.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Castlereagh?
Your district council's building control service. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
