About 4 foot by 4 foot. Large enough to serve as an emergency exit.The owners made a wise decision to replace it while replacing the roof. It was reaching the end of its useful lifespan.

The New Generation of Velux GPU Roof Windows.

In 2015, Velux introduced a new generation of roof windows with a significant number of improved features.

Style & Durability:

VELUX roof windows are made of an insulating timber core encased in white molded white polyurethane (PU) to give a smooth finish with no visible joints.

Easy to maintain White PU doesn’t need any treatment or maintenance so it’s ideal for hard to reach areas. It’s also completely moisture resistant, making it perfect for humid areas like bathrooms and kitchens.

The top control bar is easy to use even with furniture under the window. Not only that, it was redesigned by Jacob Jensen (Bang and Olufsen designer) offering better grip, as well as a stylish finish.

Excellent energy efficiency:

Experience a more comfortable home and lower energy bills with VELUX ThermoTechnology™. Innovative use of high performance materials in the window construction provides excellent energy efficiency, insulation and an airtight seal.

Get more daylight:

The new generation gives you up to 18% more daylight with a larger​ pane area.
