Questions from Caernarfon
Does anthracite show dirt?
Less than white. Dust and pollen are more visible on dark gloss finishes, which is why most grey lanterns use a matt or textured finish.
Will anthracite get hot in the sun?
Dark frames absorb more heat than white, but lantern frames are designed for it. The bigger effect on room temperature is the glass, which is why solar-control glass matters on south-facing roofs.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Caernarfon?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your county or county borough council before ordering.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Caernarfon?
With the midsummer sun about 60.3° high at noon, roof glass in Caernarfon gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
