Questions from Selby
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.
Will the colour fade?
Polyester powder coatings are designed for outdoor use and hold their colour well. Coastal sites benefit from occasional washing to remove salt deposits.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Selby?
With the midsummer sun about 59.7° high at noon, roof glass in Selby gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
