Flat rooflights for Newtownards homes
A single near-flat pane on an upstand: minimal, low and discreet.
In midsummer the noon sun stands about 58.8° high over Newtownards, so roof glazing gets the full strength of it. That is why solar-control glass is worth considering on larger lanterns here.
- Very low profile from outside
- Usually cheaper than a lantern
- Single glazed unit with a slight fall
