These skylight structures are known for their durability, large span capability, and fast on-site assembly and installation
Challenge
The original fiberglass panel skylight systems experienced extensive delaminating between the face sheet and interior aluminum grid after only nine to 10 years causing panels to deteriorate and yellow and transmit little natural, healthy sunlight.
Solution
VELUX Commercial's translucent polycarbonate S-Series structural ridge and double-pitch skylight structures were chosen for their durability, large span capability, and fast on-site assembly and installation.
The multiwall polycarbonate panels offer excellent UV protection to prevent the sun’s harmful UV rays from damaging or discoloring the polycarbonate panels. Panels were also filled with Lumira® aerogel, minimizing thermal transfer while still providing an abundance of highly diffused natural light.
