Questions from Wimbledon
Can I replace polycarbonate panels with glass?
Usually not in the old frame: glass is much heavier than polycarbonate and the frame was not designed for it. Replacing the whole lantern is the safer route.
Will a new lantern be warmer?
A modern double glazed lantern with a thermally broken frame loses far less heat than polycarbonate.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Wimbledon?
Your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
