Questions from Canning Town
Does it work under trees?
Less well. Sap and leaf debris build up faster than daylight and rain can deal with them, so lanterns under trees need more regular rinsing.
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.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Canning Town?
With the midsummer sun about 61.9° high at noon, roof glass in Canning Town gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
