Thermal Curb Mount Skylights
Skylights are efficient lighting
devices, bringing in much more light than comparably sized
windows. Horizontal illumination is about twice the illumination of an average
vertical surface. Skylights allow for a freedom of design not possible with use
of sidewall windows
as a light source.
Daylight admitted by skylights
can fill otherwise dark corners, hallways, and interior rooms
with free natural daylight. Also, since skylights are overhead and not in your
field of vision,
there is no direct glare.
Full spectrum natural lighting
from skylights means natural interior color
rendition not found with artificial light. Natural lighting also offers
important psychological
and Physiological benefits. Skylights can open up your living space for an
expanded feeling of spaciousness and freedom while still preserving your
privacy. In addition, plants will thrive
in a room filled with a full spectrum of natural light.
Clear acrylic skylights will
allow approximately 92% of the visible light to
be transmitted and 85% of the solar energy. This results in a shaft of light
passing through
the skylight, whereas a standard white translucent dome allows approximately 50%
of the daylight to pass through, however, the light is diffused and spread
evenly in the room
below.
The solar control series of
bronze and gray acrylic allows you to select the degree of light
and energy transmittance to fit each application.
