Questions from Sunbury-on-Thames
Is solar control the same as tinted glass?
Solar-control coatings often look slightly tinted, but the performance comes from the coating, not just the colour.
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.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Sunbury-on-Thames?
With the midsummer sun about 62.0° high at noon, roof glass in Sunbury-on-Thames gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
