Replacing A Skylight
We recommend replacing your skylights when you reroof. It’s the most cost-efficient way, and it allows you to synchronize your roof and skylight warranties.
VELUX skylights with shades bring energy efficiency to your home.
If a new roof isn’t in your near future, consider replacing an older skylight to improve the energy efficiency of your home. At VELUX, we improve the energy performance of our skylights with each new model, so even if you have an older VELUX skylight that works fine, it is often worth replacing it with a newer model.
Our current skylight models come standard with dual paned, LoE3 coated glass, which improves the energy performance rating by 35 percent over skylights from the early 1990s constructed with dual pane clear glass. And if you have acrylic bubble skylights on your home, the energy performance gain is even greater. Our newest models also feature Clean, Quiet and Safe glass with Neat® glass technology.
