Questions from Glenrothes
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.
Can I paint an aluminium lantern later?
It can be repainted with suitable systems, but it is far better to choose the right powder-coated colour at the start.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Glenrothes?
Yes. Delivery to Glenrothes (KY7) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Glenrothes?
With the midsummer sun about 57.2° high at noon, roof glass in Glenrothes gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
