Questions from Wishaw
Can blinds do the same job?
Internal blinds reduce glare but the heat is already inside the room. Glass that stops the heat at the roof is more effective.
Will solar-control glass make the room dark?
It lets slightly less light through than clear glass, but a roof lantern admits so much daylight that most people do not notice the difference.
How quickly can I get a roof lantern in Wishaw?
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 ML2.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Wishaw?
With the midsummer sun about 57.7° high at noon, roof glass in Wishaw gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
