A Skylight isn’t just a beautiful addition to your home that ups your market value and interior aesthetic. They are a home addition that come with plenty of benefits that you may not even know about.

If you are looking to install a skylight in your new roof or are considering removing one from your current roof, consider these benefits first:

Energy Efficient

Skylights allow for a great deal of light to be exposed in your house, which means reduced dependency on electricity during daylight hours. If you have a particularly dark space, adding a skylight is an easy way to bring in the light, lower electricity costs, and mitigate your impact on the environment.

Energy Booster

Natural light not only helps to light a space, it also helps to lighten your mood! With increased energy and a brighter spirit, you will experience enhanced creativity, learning ability, and a healthier mindset that is led by positivity and satisfaction.

Improved Vision

Your eyes tend to respond better to natural light. Reading and working in a room with natural light provided by a skylight is therefore healthier for your eyes and far more comfortable.

Reduced Heating Costs

Your home will be warmer in the winter with the help of a skylight’s ability to let in natural sunlight. This means less expensive electricity bills!

Maintains Privacy

Although side windows are beautiful and necessary for a comfortable space, a skylight is far more advantageous. With a skylight, you get the option to block off your side windows without sacrificing any of the natural light.
