Contemporary Flat Roof Glass Rooflights

With a modern, minimalistic glass-to-edge design, the Rainclear Flat Glass Rooflights are an elegant and high-performance solution for externally visible installations.

Available in 14 sizes for the fixed unit and 11 sizes for electric opening, as well as custom specifications. This unit is to suit a builder’s own site formed upstand, therefore the size measurements are to suit the dimensions of the external upstand size.

Manufactured with flat sealed glass units, each rooflight features a toughened outer pane, argon filled cavity with warm-edge spacer bar and laminated Low E inner pane. They incorporate a thermally broken fully welded aluminium frame and cill detail, increasing energy efficiency and minimizing the risk of condensation. Non-fragile to CWCT Class 1 as standard ensuring the highest performance in safety is achieved.
All visible aluminium is polyester powder coated to Anthracite Grey RAL 7016 as standard or can be powder coated to a specific RAL colour if required. The flush glaze design of the rooflight ensures efficient rainwater run-off. The warm-edge spacer bar and EPDM gasket also guarantees that the double-glazed unit holds unrivalled insulation value over its full lifetime.
These Double Glazed Flat Glass Rooflights are attractive, premium quality, modern flat glass skylights with a sleek minimalist interior and exterior finish for natural light projects around your home.
Made with a flush glazed glass-to-edge design and welded double glazed frame, good thermal and sound insulation properties and factory pre-glazing for easy installation.
The Rainclear Flat Glass Rooflight is available without ventilation or electrically opening. The electric opening unit has fully concealed motors, ensuring a clean and minimalistic finish inside and out. The motor is mounted chain down, minimising water/moisture entry.

Please note: the electrically opening units come with a switch as standard, however if remote controls and rain sensors are required these will need to be purchased separately.
