FAQs
Does this window include the flashing kit?
The YARDLITE M8A is typically sold as the window unit; ensure you purchase the appropriate flashing kit separately for your specific roof tile type.
Can this window be used in a flat roof?
No, this product is designed for pitched roofs between 15 and 90 degrees.
How long is the warranty?
The product comes with a 10-year guarantee for peace of mind regarding structural and material defects.
Is the outer glass easy to clean?
Yes, the centre-pivot design allows you to flip the window, making the external side accessible from the interior of the house.
What is the benefit of argon gas in the glazing?
Argon gas is a dense, inert gas that fills the gap between the glass panes to provide better thermal insulation than air, keeping your room warmer in winter.
Troubleshooting
Window is difficult to rotate
Check for debris in the pivot hinges or structural obstruction in the roof frame.
Condensation on the inside of the glass
This is often due to high indoor humidity; ensure proper room ventilation or use a dehumidifier in the attic space.
Window feels loose in the frame
Verify that all installation screws are tightened and that the flashing kit is correctly seated.
