Self cleaning glass rooflights are now rather popular and while it’s not the cheapest rooflight systems, it will guarantee a nice clean look for years. You won’t have to continuously call out the window cleaner to get your roof looking sparkly clean, you can sit back and relax, and watch the window clean itself.
The system uses a coating which breaks down natural dirt, while rain simply washes the dirt away. It’s a clever system and it’s rather simple too, which is why many manufacturers have engaging incorporating it into their products.
They work for windows, skylight and complete glass roofs, and it’s something you must consider if you’re going to have a large expanse covered with glass – perhaps a large bespoke rooflight for your home. Of course, if you’re not worried about having to go up and clean your rooflight every few months, than this system is probably not worth the extra money.
