How do I clean the exterior of the window?

The exterior glass can be cleaned using a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent solution. For best results, clean from the inside by opening the window and allowing it to rest in the cleaning position.

Is this window suitable for a flat roof?

This roof window is designed for pitched roofs. For flat roofs, a different type of VELUX product or accessory might be required. Please check product specifications for compatibility.

What is the warranty period for this window?

Warranty information can vary. Please refer to the product packaging or the official VELUX website for specific warranty details applicable to your purchase.

Do I need a special tool to operate the window?

No, the window features a bottom-operated, streamlined handle for effortless opening and closing. No special tools are required for regular operation.

Can I install this window myself?

While DIY installation is possible for experienced individuals, it is strongly recommended to consult the installation manual or hire a professional roofer to ensure a watertight and secure installation.

How much ventilation does the top-hung design provide?

The top-hung design allows the window to open outwards from the top, maximizing overhead clearance and providing excellent air circulation throughout the room.

Troubleshooting

Window is difficult to open or close.

Check for any obstructions in the frame or mechanism. Ensure the locking mechanism is fully disengaged. If the issue persists, the mechanism may require lubrication or adjustment by a professional.

Water leakage around the window.

Verify that the correct flashing kit for your roofing material has been installed properly. Inspect seals and gaskets for damage. If leaks continue, professional assessment and repair are recommended.

Condensation on the glass.

Condensation can occur due to high indoor humidity. Increase ventilation by opening the window or using mechanical ventilation. Ensure the window is properly sealed to prevent air drafts, which can exacerbate condensation.

The handle feels loose or stiff.

Inspect the handle and its connection to the operating rod. Small debris can sometimes impede movement. If the stiffness or looseness is significant, consult the installation manual for adjustment procedures or seek professional assistance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation of the VELUX Top Hung Roof Window requires precise fitting into a prepared roof opening. It is highly recommended to consult the official VELUX installation manual or engage a professional roofer to ensure proper sealing, flashing, and structural support. Incorrect installation can lead to leaks and performance issues.

Compatibility: This window is designed for standard roof pitches. Compatibility with specific roofing materials (e.g., tiles, shingles, metal roofing) should be confirmed with the relevant flashing kits, which are sold separately. Always check the product dimensions (780 x 1600mm) against your planned opening.

Care: To maintain its appearance and functionality, clean the exterior glass with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. The interior white-painted finish can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Periodically check the operating mechanism and seals for debris or wear and tear. Ensure ventilation slats or channels are kept clear of obstructions.
