The Role of Rooflights in Creating a Healthier Living Space

Rooflights provide a wide range of benefits including enhanced curb appeal and home value. But those are just a couple of the practical benefits. Rooflights and skylights also produce health-related benefits that can be just as, or even more, important. And that's what we're going to look at here: the role of rooflights in creating a healthier living space.

Creating a Healthier Living Space With Rooflights

The appeal of rooflights is more than skin deep. Besides enabling you to save on your electric bill they also produce a variety of health-related benefits including:

Better ventilation

Rooflights that open will create robust ventilation throughout the entire house. Say goodbye to stagnant air and musty odours produced by algae and mould. That's because this new ventilation will enable your house to dry out, making it inhospitable to mould spores and algae and eliminating the musty odours they produce.

Reduced humidity

As we mentioned, the ventilation produced by your new rooflights will dry your home out. For the first time maybe ever you'll be able to draw breaths indoors that aren't dripping with humidity and the various microbes carried by moist air.

More natural light

Medical professionals have known for some time that there is a direct connection between a lack of natural light during the cold weather months and various mood disorders. The most obvious benefit of rooflights and skylights is that they will dramatically brighten up your interior lifting your mood, reducing stress and even helping to restore normal sleep patterns.

A warmer home

Unfortunately, many homeowners keep the thermostat at a bare minimum temperature during the cold weather months in order to save energy. The result is that they're never warm and become more susceptible to colds, flu, respiratory trouble and other maladies. Rooflights allow warm, beneficial sunlight to penetrate all day long, providing passive heat and making the indoor environment healthier and more comfortable.
