There are several factors that can cause condensation, and low levels that occur at the coldest times of the year are sometimes unavoidable. Condensation can be due to the internal humidity levels, the use and activity of the building, a lack of ventilation, poorly insulated building elements, cold bridging in the construction or high temperature differences between inside and out.
The risk of condensation can be significantly reduced by using well insulated metal roof and cladding systems and by ensuring that the rooflights in these systems deliver the required thermal performance. In situations where there is risk of condensation, rooflights that are better insulated than the minimum regulation requirements will reduce the risk and amount of condensation likely to occur. We offer a comprehensive range of rooflight thermal performance options. Click here to contact our technical team to discuss.
