Maintaining your Homes Skylights

A skylight is a type of window that has been installed in your roof that lets in daylight. A skylight can provide lighting, ventilation, and even a view. Having a skylight in your home will bring in the natural sunlight, allowing more than three times as much light as an upright window of the same size. And, bringing more of the outdoors inside. Businesses may also use skylights to reduce energy usage.

Maintaining your Skylight

Most manufactures recommend having your skylights cleaned every six months. If not, a buildup and accumulation will occur of dirt, mold, condensation and more. This could leave your skylight looking clouded. And, it could also cause permanent damage to the skylight material, reducing light penetration.

Why use Professionals to Clean your Skylights
