Imagine lying down in the night and looking at the stars above you. It is one of the sights which fill the mind with tranquility. Now imagine looking at those stars from the comfort of your own bed. This is now possible with roof windows.
Where can they be installed?
Roof windows can be installed in any room, be it a living room, bedroom or office. They are a great way to let natural light enter your home during the day or have a great view of the sky at night. Since they are directly overhead, together with other windows, they can help you to brighten the room. This means you will not have to switch on your lights until it is completely dark outside. This reduces your electricity bill and hence saves you money.
The different kinds of roof windows available
A wide variety of roof windows and skylights are available for you to choose from. The choice of window depends upon the architecture, structure, shape and size of your house, particularly the roof. Common types of roof windows include rectangular, square and oval shapes, though a lot more are available.
Modern roof windows
They are not a new feature but are capable of adding a sense of style to the house and make your room look much more interesting. Modern roof windows come with new techniques like dry double glazing, advanced sealing and automatic electronic mechanisms for opening and closing the roof windows.
