Roof lantern or flat glass rooflight?

Fiona Brenchley
2 months ago

We’re having a new extension that will be open plan kitchen, dining area and snug. The extension is SW facing. We want to be able to open up so much space to the outside world and let the light pour in. We’ve opted for a roof Lantern with bifolds. However, we’re now having 2nd thoughts. Maybe roof lights would be better. Insulation is key to avoid cold in the winter and hot in the summer.
