Commercial Daylighting
Skylights – The 1000 Watt Light Fixture with a Zero Watt Footprint
Velux skylights reduce costly peak kilowatt hours by saving energy during the most expensive times of the day while filling your work area with abundant natural light.
Every Velux Skylight will more than pay for itself with reduced electric bills. Daylighting just 4-5% of the floor area allows lights to be shut off 70-80% of the daylight hours. If the building is used around the clock every day, that’s about 2,800 hours per year, with a lamp and ballast maintenance savings of 33%.
Independent surveys have verified the positive effects of daylight that not only reduced energy consumption, but also increased employee efficiency, increased retail sales and improved student performance.
Although Velux skylights have the highest structural integrity of any skylight in the industry, Safety Security Skylight Guards provide a lifetime of fall protection for the owner and meet all OSHA requirements. We have both double door FM-approved and single door UL fusible link smoke vents where fire codes mandate their use.
