Natural light can transform any living space—making rooms feel more open, boosting mood, and creating a warm, welcoming environment.

Beyond aesthetics, adding skylights to your home can significantly enhance energy efficiency by reducing reliance on artificial lighting and heating systems.

At AKRoN Roofing, we specialize in professionally installing Velux skylights, offering Calgary homeowners the perfect way to upgrade their homes with natural light while saving on energy costs.

Why Install Skylights?

Skylights do more than brighten up a room—they are a smart home improvement choice that combines style, comfort, and efficiency.

Here’s why homeowners are turning to skylights:

• Natural Light: Skylights allow sunlight to pour into areas where traditional windows can’t reach, creating a brighter, more inviting space.
• Energy Efficiency: They reduce the need for artificial lighting and help regulate indoor temperatures, cutting down on energy bills.
• Home Value Boost: Installing high-quality skylights can increase your home’s resale value by enhancing curb appeal and creating a modern, energy-efficient space.

By choosing Velux skylights, renowned for their energy-efficient designs and durability, you’re making a lasting investment in your home’s comfort and functionality.

Energy Efficiency Benefits Of Skylights

Skylights can be a powerful tool for improving energy efficiency. By introducing more daylight into your home, you’ll naturally reduce your dependency on electric lighting during the day.

According to Alexandria Engineering Journal Research, skylights can help lower energy consumption by reducing artificial lighting needs and contributing to passive solar heating during colder months.

Velux offers advanced glass options designed to withstand Southern Alberta’s diverse weather conditions:

• Clean Comfort Plus (Glass Code 004): This option features exterior tempered safety glass and a laminated interior pane, providing excellent energy efficiency and thermal performance. The Neat® coating ensures a cleaner and quieter experience, backed by a 10-year hail warranty.
• Triple Pane Laminate (Glass Code 029): Comprising two exterior panes of tempered safety glass and an interior laminated pane, this triple-coated, argon gas-injected glass offers superior energy efficiency and thermal performance.

These features help maintain a comfortable indoor temperature year-round while reducing energy costs.

Natural Light: A Boost For Your Home Environment

The benefits of natural light extend beyond aesthetics. According to Healthline exposure to natural daylight can improve mood, increase productivity, and promote better sleep patterns.

Installing Velux skylights allows you to harness these health benefits by creating a brighter, more uplifting home environment.

Whether it’s a living room, kitchen, or bathroom, the increased exposure to sunlight can help foster a more positive atmosphere in every corner of your home.

At AKRoN Roofing, we carefully assess the placement of skylights to ensure maximum light exposure while maintaining energy efficiency.

AKRoN Roofing’s Skylight Installation Services

At AKRoN Roofing, we specialize in the expert installation and replacement with Velux skylights that are both functional and visually appealing.

Our experienced team ensures every skylight is installed with precision and care, using only the highest-quality materials to guarantee durability and weather resistance.

Over time, existing skylights can develop issues such as seal failure, condensation between panes, or deterioration of flashing, leading to leaks and reduced energy efficiency. Our team is experienced in assessing existing skylights, identifying potential problems, and providing homeowners with the best replacement options to suit their needs.

During our assessment, we check for common issues such as:

• Loss of Vacuum Seal: Over time, double-pane skylights can develop condensation between the glass due to a failed seal, reducing insulation value and visibility.
• UV-Damaged Domes: Acrylic or polycarbonate skylight domes can become brittle or discoloured from prolonged sun exposure, impacting both durability and light clarity.
• External Sealing & Flashing Integrity: We inspect the perimeter sealant and surrounding flashing to ensure there are no gaps or deteriorated areas where water can infiltrate. Proper flashing is essential for preventing leaks, especially in older installations.

Our installation process follows manufacturer specifications to ensure a proper, watertight seal. If your skylight is outdated, we can offer modern upgrade options, including energy-efficient models with improved glazing or solar-powered blinds for added convenience. Whether it’s a standard replacement or an upgrade with additional features, we help homeowners make informed decisions to improve both function and comfort.

With years of experience in Calgary’s roofing industry, our team guarantees professional results that combine beauty and practicality.
