uPVC roof lanterns in County Armagh: questions
Is uPVC heavier?
Weight is dominated by the glass, so the difference is small.
Can I get a grey uPVC lantern?
Some ranges offer foiled colours. The choice is narrower than aluminium.
Will white uPVC yellow over time?
Modern uPVC profiles are UV-stabilised and should stay white with normal cleaning. Very old lanterns, especially with polycarbonate panels, are the ones that discolour.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in County Armagh?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your district council before ordering.
