Questions from Maghull
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 I have a manual opening vent?
Manual vents are rare on lanterns because they are out of reach. Electric operation is standard.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Maghull?
With the midsummer sun about 59.9° high at noon, roof glass in Maghull gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
