The space under the roof is far too valuable to store discarded furniture, old household goods or sorted clothing. With a little imagination and craftsmanship, additional living space can be created relatively quickly. How about a big room for the adolescent son or daughter? You will be amazed at the zeal with which the teenagers will help to implement such a project! Maybe you’re wondering how to turn the uncomfortable, dark room into a room where a teenager sleeps, works and spends his free time with friends. With a modern roof window, you can quickly bring light into the darkness and the first ideas are born as to where the desk could find its place and how a cosy place for relaxed chilling can be set up under the sloping roof
This is one of the first questions you have to answer when choosing a new roof window. The selection of plastic windows is particularly large. Plastic windows are inexpensive and can be manufactured in a wide variety of shapes and colours. They are also weather-resistant and low-maintenance. Dust and dirt from the environment can hardly settle on the smooth surfaces. Plastic windows are usually made of PVC. This material is easy to process in production, which has a favourable effect on costs. In order to reduce heat losses, complex insulation chamber systems were developed in window construction that can be manufactured from plastic without great effort. In recent decades, wooden windows have gone a little out of fashion. However, the proven material is gradually being rediscovered for the construction of high-quality windows. Wooden windows not only look good, they are also a good choice for ecological reasons. Wood is a renewable raw material that insulates heat well and can help save energy. And also the maintenance effort could be minimized. Modern surface treatment processes ensure that wooden windows no longer have to be painted continuously. Aluminium windows are relatively expensive. But especially in the roof area this material has some advantages that should not be underestimated. These windows are non-flammable and have a long service life. A natural oxide layer forms on the surface, reliably protecting the material from environmental influences.
Good thermal insulation is the be-all and end-all
To ensure that the new living space is always comfortably warm and the heating costs are not driven to dizzying heights, you must pay attention to good thermal insulation when selecting windows. Wood is unproblematic in this respect because the natural material does not conduct heat well. With plastic windows the problem is solved by a chamber system. The air contained has an insulating effect, so that no unwanted thermal bridges can occur even with these windows. Aluminium windows are somewhat more problematic because metals are good heat conductors. An elaborate profile technology was developed to stop the transfer of heat. Thermal separation is achieved by inserting plastic webs.
But you should not only think about cold winter days. In summer, the temperature in an attic room can rise to intolerable levels if no precautions are taken in good time. There are roller blinds and pleated blinds in all sizes on the market that can be attached to roof windows.
