Description

Dual action roof windows

Developed for use in attics with shallower pitched roofs to maximise roof top views. For within-reach situations only.

• Opens in two ways: the bottom handle allows for top-hung opening; a short pull on the top control bar allows filtered background ventilation even while the window remains shut.

• A second pull on the control bar allows the window to rotate for maximum ventilation – and up to 180° for cleaning the outer pane from inside the room.

• Quality white painted pine sash & frame.

• Complete with flashing for corrugated iron or tile roofs.

• Available in 5 sizes.

• Laminated double glazing as standard.

• Insect screen available as extra.

CodeMark is a voluntary certification scheme owned by the Commonwealth of Australia that provides legally binding evidence of compliance to the National Construction Code of Australia. One certificate replaces dozens of technical papers.

* For roofs below 15° pitch, VSS/VSE skylights need to be raised to 15° and custom flashed. VELUX can assist with technical advice and drawings. (NB: build-up not recommended in Bushfire areas.)

** VELUX recommends VCS is installed with a slight pitch (e.g. 3°-5°) to help reduce condensation build-up and water ponding on the glass.

† U-value (W/m²K) and SHGC data based on AFRC simulations, (complete skylight size; VSS/VSE: 1140mm x 1180mm, VCS: 1275mm x 1275mm) .

# Cyclone test not performed with screws provided, installation requires #8 roofing screws.

^ Skylight only. Custom-made flashing required. Skylight tested in closed position (VCS BAL assessed – based on VSS results), metal flywire mesh protection required for opening apertures (consult local council). Roof pitch; VSS: 18°-75°, VCS: 0°-60°. † † Assessed in closed position.
