Built for comfort – Energy Efficient
Our Double Glazed Glass Skydomes are energy efficient – keeping you cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Dependent upon the type of glass installed, heat transfer can be reduced by up to 78% (double glazed tinted low e) during summer and retention of warmth in winter by up to 69%.
Skydome’s range glass skylights offer two specific performance ratings:
- U Value – a measure of efficiency in resisting heat transfer through the skylight
- Shading Coefficient (SHGC) – measure of effectiveness in providing shading from the heat and sun
- The lower the rating for both U Value and Shading Coefficient (SHGC), the greater the thermal and shading performance of the glass.
The Double Glazed Glass Skydome range has excellent insulating performance while maintaining high daylight transmission.
MAXIMISE COMFORT AND ENJOY THE DAYLIGHT DIFFERENCE WITH A GLASS SKYDOME
Insulating Glass Units (IGU’s) also known as double glazing, are two panes of glass, bonded to a spacer and separated by an argon gas filled space. Because this space is fully sealed, it acts as an insulator, keeping your home at a comfortable temperature in both Summer and Winter. Most of our double glazed units also have a low e coating maximising comfort for our hot summers.
