Questions from Antrim
Can a vent be added later?
Usually not to an existing fixed lantern. Decide before ordering.
What happens if it rains while the vent is open?
With a rain sensor the vent closes automatically. Without one it stays where you left it, so a sensor is worth having.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Antrim?
With the midsummer sun about 58.7° high at noon, roof glass in Antrim gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Antrim?
We can quote for fitting where we have cover. Send your postcode and photos of the roof and kerb, and we will confirm before quoting.
