There is so much about this Solar centre-pivot solar powered skylight that will tick your boxes!
- It is green with a capital G and it will save you money as it’s power comes from daylight - and even if there’s no sun it stores enough power to open and close the window an incredible 300 times!

This one comes in white polyurethane uPVC (GGU) which means it's easier to clean and requires little to no maintenance compared to the white painted pine. As ever it has the VELUX 10-year guarantee on the window, 3-year guarantee on the solar components.
