| April 24, 2005 | | How big of a skylight do I need? | Every skylight is sized to fit a particular room according to many different factors. First, understand that most people, being disappointed with a dark room, over-size their skylight causing too much heat loss in the winter and too much heat gain in the summer. Many contractors install a standard 2x4 skylight, without considering all the different factors. We look at which direction the skylight will face, how large the room is, how reflective the materials are in the room, how deep the shaft will be, along with many other factors. | | |
