Rooflights of RIBA award-winning home

A bespoke eaves rooflight from Glazing Vision has been chosen for a RIBA award-winning new house, situated on the edge of River Alde in Suffolk. Glazing Vision worked closely with architects SOUP to ensure the rooflight met the technical and aesthetic requirements of the project. The firm says the homeowner鈥檚 requirement for a haven of peace and tranquillity was fulfilled, primarily because of the carefully planned use of light and space throughout the building.

Roof panels

The Kingspan OPTIM-R roofing system and Kingspan Thermataper TT47 LPC/FM have been installed at a new care housing scheme in North Yorkshire. The project required optimum thermal performance and the required tapered fall, with a minimal build-up. Approximately 30mm of Kingspan OPTIM-R roofing system was used to maintain the target U-value of 0.15 W/m虏K. A further layer of high performance Kingspan Thermataper TT47 LPC/FM was installed above the Kingspan OPTIM-R roofing system. The company says both products ensured the roof met its U-value requirements with the thinnest possible build-up.

Roof trim

Rooflight specialist Whitesales has launched the Em-Trim FasciaFree roof trim. The company claims the product gives a smart, professional finish to any flat roof edge, while also working where a deeper trim may be required. As regulatory requirements for roof insulation thickness have increased in recent years - a trend looking set to continue - the 200mm Em-Trim FasciaFree supports Part L compliance. The Em-Trim FasciaFree is made from tough, enhanced polyester and is available from stock for next day delivery.
