Questions from Antrim
Is self-cleaning glass the same as solar-control glass?
No. Self-cleaning is a coating that sheds dirt; solar control reduces heat gain. Many lantern units combine both.
Do I still need to clean self-cleaning glass?
Occasionally. It keeps the glass cleaner for longer, but heavy dirt and droppings still need a gentle rinse, especially in dry spells.
How quickly can I get a roof lantern in Antrim?
Stock sizes are typically ready in 5–10 working days, made-to-measure in 3–4 weeks, plus delivery. Your quote gives the date for BT41.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Antrim?
With the midsummer sun about 58.7° high at noon, roof glass in Antrim gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
