Questions from Armagh
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.
Can a vent be added later?
Usually not to an existing fixed lantern. Decide before ordering.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Armagh?
Yes. Delivery to Armagh (BT61) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Armagh?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your district council before ordering.
