Solar Skylight - Low Pitch by VELUX

Solar Skylight - Low Pitch

Description

Velux VCS low-pitch solar powered skylight is the smart choice for expanding interiors with daylight, fresh air and sky views on remote control. It has a solar panel that captures available daylight and uses it to recharge a highly efficient, fully concealed battery powered operator and control system. This operator is the power source that opens and closes the skylight and removes the need for electrical wiring during installation.

The VCS low-pitch solar powered skylight is perfect for bathrooms, kitchens, laundries and any other rooms needing a daylight and fresh air transformation.
