Questions from Aberystwyth
Will a new lantern be warmer?
A modern double glazed lantern with a thermally broken frame loses far less heat than polycarbonate.

Often the roof or kerb detailing. A survey or close inspection will tell. If the lantern is the problem, replacing it is usually better value than repairing old polycarbonate.
