My home has a skylight

>> Why is my room dark?

Bringing in natural light with a skylight

When creating a new window in your home is not possible, a skylight can be the solution to bring in light.

The installation of a skylight has become one of the most common choices for families to bring natural light into a home. It is represented by an opening in the roof that is topped by a dome.

In addition, a skylight can allow homeowners to enjoy the view outside, day and night, while reducing the amount of traditional lighting used during the day.

Skylights have many advantages: they are easy to install, economical, environmentally friendly, aesthetic and relaxing.

However, the light well also has its drawbacks. If the installation is faulty, it can lead to water leaks that can cause serious damage to the roof, but also to heating losses that can be accompanied by unpleasant draughts.
