Extended Product Information

FAQs

What does 1mtr x 1.5mtr refer to?

These dimensions refer to the external measurements of the roof curb that the lantern sits upon.

Can this be installed on a flat roof?

Yes, but it must be installed on a raised, insulated curb to provide the required pitch and water shedding capability.

Is the internal frame finish customizable?

No, this specific model features white PVC-u internal bars as standard.

Does the blue tint make the room dark?

No, the blue tint is subtle and designed to reduce glare and solar heat gain while still allowing abundant natural light to enter.

Is this lantern energy-efficient?

Yes, it is engineered to be 65% more thermally efficient than traditional aluminum roof systems.

Troubleshooting

Condensation on the internal frame

Ensure the room has adequate ventilation. While the frame is thermally efficient, high humidity levels in kitchens can lead to temporary condensation.

Water pooling on the glass

Verify that the curb is level and that there are no obstructions in the frame drainage channels.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly better thermal performance than standard aluminum systems
  • Modern, minimalist aesthetic enhances interior light
  • Durable grey exterior is resistant to the elements
  • Blue-tinted glazing reduces glare and improves energy efficiency

Cons

  • Strict requirement for accurate external curb measurements
  • Requires professional installation to ensure structural integrity
  • Only available in a fixed 20-degree pitch configuration

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper installation begins with the construction of a timber or masonry curb. It is vital to ensure the external dimensions of this curb are exactly 1mtr x 1.5mtr, as the lantern rests directly upon it.

  1. Verify the curb is level and square before ordering.
  2. Ensure the structural support is sufficient to hold the weight of the glazing unit.
  3. Follow the manufacturer's specific sequence for securing the frame to the curb to ensure a weather-tight seal.

For ongoing care, the exterior grey finish requires minimal maintenance beyond occasional cleaning with mild soapy water. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical solvents on the frame or the blue-tinted glass to maintain the finish and coating longevity.
