Questions from Penarth
Does an opening vent let insects in?
When open, yes, as with any window. Some ranges offer fly screens.
Can I have a manual opening vent?
Manual vents are rare on lanterns because they are out of reach. Electric operation is standard.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Penarth?
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.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Penarth?
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.
