Castle Rock, CO Barn Gets a Skylight Upgrade

The fiberglass skylights are hail damaged, leaking and seriously inadequate.

The corrugated fiberglass panels set into the roof give skylights a bad name. At best, they are only suitable for use above unheated spaces. When it was time to get a new roof on the barn, the owner chose to upgrade the skylights, also.

The benefits of a modern skylight upgrade are many.

Modern low E³ glass is remarkably sophisticated—letting in plenty of light and blocking the majority of the sun's heat.
Reducing heat gain during the summer months leads to lower energy bills.
The coating also blocks over 99% of harmful ultraviolet rays, protecting your furniture and flooring from fading.
Helps keep a more consistent temperature throughout your home, reducing hot spots and providing a more comfortable living space.
Brightens your rooms and reduces the need for artificial lighting.
