FAQs

What is the primary difference between top-hung and center-pivot windows?

Top-hung windows open outwards from the top, providing a clearer view and more floor space, whereas center-pivot windows rotate around a central axis.

Can I install this window on a flat roof?

No, this specific model is designed for pitched roofs between 15 and 55 degrees.

Does the window come with a blind?

Blinds are sold separately, though the window is designed for seamless integration with VELUX internal and external blind systems.

How do I clean the exterior of the window?

The window is designed to be rotated 180 degrees so that the exterior pane can be cleaned safely from inside the room.

Is the white finish painted or a laminate?

It is a high-quality white-painted finish using a water-based, long-lasting lacquer.

Troubleshooting

Window is difficult to open or close

Check the hinges for debris and ensure no structural settlement has affected the frame squareness.

Condensation on the inner pane

Increase room ventilation and ensure the integrated ventilation flap is properly used.

Handle feels loose

Check the connection points and tightening screws; if the handle mechanism itself is damaged, contact support for a replacement part.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Maximizes views due to top-hung design
  • Easy-to-clean white painted finish
  • Enhanced safety with laminated glass
  • Effective integrated ventilation flap
  • Suitable for various interior styles

Cons

  • Requires special springs for pitches over 55 degrees
  • Heavier operation compared to center-pivot windows
  • Installation requires precise roof measurements

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This window is designed for roof pitches between 15 and 55 degrees. For steeper roofs (55 to 75 degrees), you must contact the supplier to order specialized springs. Ensure your rough opening matches the 55 cm by 117.8 cm specification before beginning installation.

Maintenance Tips:

  • Glass Care: Clean the glass with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth or a non-abrasive sponge.
  • Exterior Covers: These are largely maintenance-free due to their lacquered aluminum construction.
  • Filter Cleaning: The ventilation filter can be removed and washed in standard household detergents to maintain airflow quality.
  • Paint Maintenance: Periodically inspect the white-painted wood finish and touch up as necessary to maintain the moisture-resistant seal.
