Will this dome help insulate my room?

Troubleshooting

Dome appears cloudy or dirty

The self-cleaning design relies on rainwater. If there's a lack of rain or significant build-up, clean manually with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Water pooling around the dome

Ensure the roof pitch is within the acceptable range (0-15 degrees) and that the VELUX Flat Roof Base is correctly installed and sealed to prevent water ingress.

Condensation on the inside of the dome

Some condensation can occur due to temperature differences. Ensure adequate ventilation in the room below. Persistent condensation may indicate an installation issue.

Scratches on the dome surface

Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials. Minor scratches can sometimes be buffed out with a specialized polycarbonate cleaner, but prevention is key.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Velux Flat Roof Dome requires a compatible VELUX Flat Roof Base for installation. Ensure the base is securely fitted to the flat roof structure according to manufacturer guidelines. The dome then attaches to the base. Professional installation is recommended to ensure a watertight seal and proper structural integration.

Compatibility:

This dome is specifically designed to be compatible with all VELUX Flat Roof Bases. It is suitable for flat roof pitches ranging from 0 to 15 degrees. Ensure your roof structure can support the installation.

Care:

  • Clean the exterior of the dome periodically with a soft cloth and mild soap solution, followed by rinsing with clean water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or tools that could scratch the polycarbonate surface.
  • The self-cleaning design assists with regular maintenance, as rainwater helps to wash away dirt and debris. However, in areas with minimal rainfall or heavy build-up, manual cleaning may be necessary.
  • Inspect the seals and fittings periodically to ensure continued weatherproofing.
