Installation is a skilled process and the NOVA team are proud to be the first contractor to achieve ‘Approved Installer’ status from The Rooflight Co.
What happens when a rooflight is not installed correctly?
-
Rooflights require appropriate insulation to prevent heat loss and ‘cold bridging’. Incorrectly installed insulation reduces the thermal performance of your rooflight by up to 30%, encourages condensation and promotes mould growth.
The use of a thermal collar prevents cold bridging, however this is often missed by inexperienced installers.
-
We all know it likes to rain in the UK and the one thing you really do not want is water to leak through your rooflight. Incorrectly installed flashing around the rooflight can allow water to seep in.
It is also crucial to make sure the rooflight is level, straight and untwisted. Failure to check this can lead to the weather seals insufficiently sealing which will affect air-tightness and may also cause ‘binding’ during opening/closing of the unit
-
During the installation process, accurate measurements are vital. Even the slightest error when setting out and cutting can lead uneven frame margins and incorrect alignment.
-
You will mostly look at your rooflight from the inside and so it is vitally important that the finish is to the highest standard.
One of the features of a rooflight from The Rooflight Co is the beautiful, frameless internal appearance. This is achieved with the skilled fitting of a timber or plaster reveal around the head, cill and jambs. Without this, you will be able to see the mechanisms of the rooflight and it will lead to mould growth.
