Replacement Dome or New?

If you require polycarbonate domes

 

for

 

a new roof or a retrofit, all domes

 

come supplied with an external kerb, either standard sized

 

or

 

built from your own dimensions.

Providing upstands

 

with our

 

rooflights helps users save money on sourcing and building their own. The only additional purchase required is the flashing, usually made from the existing

 

roof material.

If you already have an existing kerb and do not require an upstand,

 

or you simply require a replacement dome, our polycarbonate dome offering also includes the

 

dome only.

Thicker Skin

 

= Greater Energy Efficiency

 

Polycarbonate roof domes come in four skin thicknesses. The thicker the polycarbonate glazing, the more thermally efficient the dome.

For uninhabited spaces, such as a shed, single skin domes will suffice, providing plenty of light

 

but little insulation.

Double skin domes offer superior thermal performance with a U-value half that of single skin. Double skin polycarbonate domes are recommended for

 

dome replacements.

For new builds, triple skin domes are needed

 

to comply with current Building Regulations Part L Thermal Performance. These have a U-value of 1.78.

Offering the best energy efficiency is the quadruple skin dome. These domes will keep the area below them both bright and warm, ideal if that area is regularly occupied.

Trio Of Ventilation & Access Options

Should you want your polycarbonate dome to provide more than just daylight and insulation, our domes open either partially (400mm) or fully

 

for complete ventilation.

Fully openable polycarbonate domes pass

 

as

 

means of escape windows, while also providing easier access

 

to the roof.

Electric domes offer complete convenience as you can open and close them at the

 

click of a remote control. The built-in rain sensor can pick up on the first sign of rain and close the window before water gets into the building.

For manual domes installed out of reach, a purpose-built operating rod should be purchased for easier opening

Should you not want your polycarbonate dome to open, fixed domes are available at a cheaper price and can be made with a controllable trickle vent in the upstand to provide 8000mm2 of ventilation.
