Product Information

Full details

The Velux Top Hung Roof Window (CK06 0070) is designed for homeowners looking to maximize natural light and panoramic views in rooms with low-to-medium roof pitches. Its primary advantage is the outward-opening design, which creates a sense of additional space and provides clear, unobstructed access to the outdoors, though prospective buyers should note that installation requires a specific roof pitch range of 15° to 55° unless supplemental springs are used.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I install this window on a flat roof?

No, this model is designed for pitched roofs between 15° and 55° (or up to 75° with special springs).

Is the white finish paintable?

The white polyurethane finish is designed to be maintenance-free and does not require painting.

Does this window come with blinds?

Blinds are sold separately, but this model is fully compatible with the standard Velux range of internal and external blinds.

How do I clean the outside of the glass?

You can rotate the window 180 degrees until the barrel bolt locks the sash, allowing you to wipe the outer pane from inside the room.

Is the glass safe if it breaks?

Yes, the window features safety lamination and toughened glass, which are designed to resist breakage and remain safe if impacted.

Does it reduce noise?

Yes, the window includes specialized rain noise reduction glazing to dampen the sound of heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Window feels stiff when opening or closing

Check the friction hinges for debris or lack of lubrication and apply a silicone-based lubricant if necessary.

Condensation on the interior glass

Ensure the room is adequately ventilated using the top control bar; high humidity in the home often causes surface moisture.

Window does not hold in the open position

Verify that the sash is correctly installed and the tension springs are properly engaged; consult a professional if the issue persists.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Moisture-resistant finish perfect for kitchens and bathrooms
  • Provides unobstructed panoramic views due to the top-hung design
  • Easy to clean thanks to the seamless white polyurethane frame
  • Built-in rain noise reduction improves comfort during storms
  • Ventilation bar allows airflow without needing to open the main window

Cons

  • Standard installation limited to 15°–55° roof pitches
  • Requires optional springs to reach 75° pitch compatibility
  • Requires professional installation for structural safety

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation

This model is designed for roof pitches between 15° and 55°. If your roof exceeds 55°, you must purchase the optional spring accessory kit to extend compatibility up to 75°. Given the weight and mechanics of top-hung windows, professional installation is strongly recommended to ensure correct alignment and weather-tight sealing.

Care and Maintenance

  • Cleaning the Frame: Use a soft, damp cloth with mild detergent to wipe down the polyurethane frame. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the finish.
  • Glass Maintenance: The external pane can be cleaned by rotating the sash 180 degrees and locking it in place with the barrel bolt, allowing safe access from inside.
  • Ventilation Filter: Periodically remove and wash the ventilation air filter located behind the top control bar to maintain optimal airflow.
