How to Order a Velux Skylight

As a way of brightening rooms and moods with an emphasis on eco-friendly design, installing VELUX skylights and sun tunnels are also an easy way to uplift décor. VELUX is hands-down the most trusted name in the skylight and sun tunnel industry. No matter how your house and roof are constructed, VELUX provides you with a number of choices.

In order to determine which type of VELUX skylight or sun tunnel you need, you’ll first need to check your roof pitch to verify that it works with your intended skylight products and choose the ideal skylight product category. Here’s a brief rundown on the types of products VELUX offers:

1.    Electric Venting VELUX Skylights: Overhead installations that could use a little natural ventilation, like kitchens and bathrooms.
2.    Manual Venting VELUX Skylights: In-reach or overhead installations that don’t require escape and rescue, and where natural ventilation and manual operation is desired. These also work great in the kitchen and the bathroom.
3.    VELUX Roof Windows: In-reach installations requiring emergency escape and rescue capabilities such as above-garage bonus rooms and finished attics. VELUX also has a wide selection of window blinds.
4.    Fixed VELUX Skylights: Installations where ventilation is not desired, but where a view to the outside would still be beneficial. Fixed skylights are great for the living room, family room or your bedroom if you are an early riser.
5.    VELUX Sun Tunnel Skylights: Small spaces where natural daylight is the only requirement or where a traditional skylight shaft length would be more than 4 feet. VELUX sun tunnel skylights are a great fit for walk-in closets, bathrooms, and the garage.
