A skylight with the use of daylight as primary lighting in commercial buildings can improves energy up to 24 percent, according to scientific experts.
Although it is well known that technical lighting in combination with daylighting in office can save up to one-half the lighting energy, the positive impacts of daylight on productivity, human health and well-being may be more compelling reasons to incorporate a skylight into the design of buildings. According to Lighting Research Center in Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, reports that Lack of bright light exposure during the day may result in disruption of the circadian system and lead to feelings of depression, poor sleep quality, lethargy, and even illness. People working in interior offices would spend less time in their offices and would be less productive than a matched group of people working on an office with a skylight. The National Commission on Sleep Disorders Research estimates that, in the United States alone, businesses lose more than $150 billion a year in productivity as a result of employee fatigue due to lack of daylight. The solution of a skylight construction on a commercial building not only decrease absenteeism but maximize productivity. Ask for our advice and use a quality skylight system as Glazetech offers. A skylight system that can be a tailor-made solution for your space and gives 10years guarantee for waterproofness without any maintenance costs or hidden subscription fees. The magnificence of a skylight is a feeling we’ve all have sense while sitting under an impressive construction. Daylight from a skylight can brighten up dark areas and converts ordinary rooms into brilliant spaces. But beyond lighten up our feelings, we all know that a skylight construction, until now, was coming together with a big unsolved problem.. water leakage. Some systems promised a cheap initially solution that proved later just an utopia or maybe a kind of “trap” as was only the beginning of a permanent maintenance contract.
The use of rubbers was not quite enough to stop water while a rubber has limited time duration.. is so easy for every one of us to realize this even from our car wipers. Silicone adhesives were not an appropriate solution either, not only because of the same reasons as mentioned before.. but because the construction was sealed totally, at least at the beginning, without permitting the skylight to “breath”. But a system without natural or motorized ventilation could mean only one thing : Condensation.. Glazetech came with a real promising solution to a till now unsolved life-time problem.. A high-quality skylight aluminum system that manages the complete water tightness without trace of silicone. Every column consists from at least 7 different profiles that all together matches as a puzzle and work as a gutter system. Water will enter normally each column and goes away from the edges of the construction. Rubbers on the system are only for supporting gladding overlapping material and help in the thermo diastolic cases. Skylight now have natural ventilation to avoid condensation and extra ventilation can be added if specific area needs it. Now, maintenance costs are not supposed to accompany a skylight project. A skylight system with real waterproofing ability certified under British standards and all these come with a 10 years written guarantee. Designed to fulfill the advanced technical requirements of modern architectural. Developed to the highest European standards and subjected to the most rigorous tests. Glazetech creates a tailor-made system suitable for each project, by designing in mm each detail of it. A unique solution on architects, engineers and individuals’ disposal for creating projects for a life time, without maintenance costs, designing securely and without limits. |
