Flat roof deck mounted skylight D_F

The benefits of natural illumination of the building are unquestionable but it happens that in buildings with flat roofs it is not always possible to install standard vertical windows. Ideal solution in such cases is installation of specially designed products for flat roofs.

Characteristics:

• FAKRO thermo flat roof skylights illuminate interiors with natural light, provide room ventilation and combine high functionality with perfect thermal insulation parameters.
• Now every room under the flat roof can be warm and full of natural light.
• Every room should provide a source of natural light for a dweller to feel comfortable.
• The ideal solution in such cases is the installation of specially designed flat roof skylights.

GLAZING

The type F has energy-efficient with triple DU6 glazing. The external glass is 1/4" (6mm) thick and laminated for superior protection against impact such as hail. The high R-value and tightness of the triple and quadruple glazed skylights make this skylight suitable for energy-efficient and passive house projects. The heat transmittance co-efficient for the whole skylight with triple glaze (DU6) is U=0.70 W/m2K*(to EN 14351-1) while the heat transmittance co-efficient for the whole skylight is U=0.64 W/m2K** (to EN 14351-1), making.
