LED Skylights VS Traditional Skylights
LED Skylights
Traditional Fixed Skylight Windows
Installation
LED Skylights
Simple process, which any electrician can perform with minimal wiring. No retrofitting required.
Traditional Skylights
Experienced installer required to perform complicated roof alterations, which can prove to be
costly and risky.
Maintenance / Cleaning
LED Skylights
Virtually no maintenance required, and cleaning is effortless.
Traditional Skylights
Due to their structure and position on the roof, skylight windows can easily become dirty due to condensation over time, and cleaning them can be a strenuous job. Moisture problems (or leaks) may also arise if the skylight has not been properly insulated.
Heat gain / loss
LED Skylights
LED Skylights do not have any impact on the air temperature.
Traditional Skylights
Since skylights are located on the roof, they tend to lose heated air in the winter and cooled air in the summer.
Glare
LED Skylights
LED Skylights do not produce glare and do not interfere with projectors or any other light emitting technology. LED Skylights have a dimmable range of 1% to 100%
Traditional Skylights
Because traditional style skylights allow unfiltered sunlight directly into your home, you might experience issues with glare at certain points of the day.
