VELUX Double Glazing

Double Glazing, Argon gas, Low E3

Our double glazing provides heat insulation, sound insulation, added strength and safety – and protection from the elements.
All VELUX skylights, low-pitch skylights and roof windows are Double Glazed, Argon gas filled with Low E coating and warm edge technology.

Recommendation:
When the highest point of a skylight glazing is more than 5m or higher above floor level, Grade A laminated glazing must be used to comply with NZS 4223

  5. Neat™ coating to reduce cleaning frequency
  6. Warm edge technology increases energy efficiency

Benefits:

  • UV harmful rays block: 99% 
  • Noise reduction factor: 32 decibels 
  • Double layer of Low-E3 coating. 
  • 10 year warranty on insulated glass seal. 
  • Reduced cleaning frequency.

Hailstone Test 

In simulated tests VELUX Skylights withstood cricket ball sized hailstones at speeds experienced during heavy storms.

NEAT™ Photocatalytic Coating 

Silicone Dioxide/Titanium Dioxide coating reacts with the sun’s UV rays to decompose surface organic dirt before rinsing away with the next shower of rain, thereby reducing cleaning frequency. 

  • The coating also makes the glass surface smoother, so water disperses evenly, sheets off and evaporates quickly, thereby minimising water spotting on the pane.
