Benefits
With FlexLite skylights technology you gain significant savings in electrical energy, use of solar energy and minimize the dependence on carbon based fossil fuels; you attain not only more pleasant environments in industry, trade and home but more satisfactory experiences enjoying daylight and light scattering of our products.
Reasons to choose FlexLite prefabricated skylights
-
1. Opening. Only from 65 to 70% less opening with the same lighting level is required. That is, less heat transfer and great thermal insulation.
-
2. Return on Investment. Get savings in artificial lighting, HVAC consumption and maintenance costs in cleaning and repair.
-
3. Watertightness. Prismatic skylight curb allows full sealing in bolted, ring-file or panel foil covers as well as Single-Ply membrane covers.
-
4. Productivity. The staff productivity both in production lines, and office areas, will be increased significantly, as well as work environment perceptions. -
5. Purchase satisfaction. Studies show that buying in retail and departmental stores with FlexLite systems increases the consumer’s sense to stay and buy. -
6. Maintenance. Maintenance-free FlexLite lighting systems do not require replenishment of fillings and sealant or cleaning.
-
7. Long term performance. 100% guarantee for 10 year with a yellowing index less than 3%.
-
8. Block of ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) radiation. Able to block 100% UV radiation and up to 46% IR radiation, with a heat gain coefficient (SHGC-solar heat gain Coefficient) of 0.54. -
9. Safety. FlexLite lighting systems meets OSHA and provide resistance against fall risk with dead loads up to 1,200 lb. (545 kg) in a 4′ x 8′ (1.22m x 2.44m) skylight.
-
10. Fire resistance. All glazings use CC2 of zero flame spread. The systems are UL listed. -
11. Wind and hail resistance.
-
12. Heat transfer resistance. FlexLite systems use double acrylic or polycarbonate glazing laminates, allowing trapped air work as thermal insulator. Please check R factors available with us.
-
13. Lighting engineering. Unlike the conventional skylights lines following a roof’s exterior pattern, in Flexlite every skylight place is selected depending on the building and the inside layout.
-
14. Warranty. Flexlite guarantees in writing the lighting design match lighting gained with the system installed.
-
15. Compatibility. Daylight systems are compatible with the attenuators and artificial lighting controls in order to optimize the use of energy.
-
16. Sustainability. FlexLite systems are energy-saving and long term performance products, so are considered in LEED certification as low environmental impact buildings.
