Skydome’s Angular Selective Skylight creates more natural light, reduce heat transfer and eliminate 99% of harmful UV rays.
Developed in association with the Queensland University of Technology, the Angular Selective Skydome has been designed to offer a high-performance natural lighting system that captures more light from low elevation sunshine (early morning, late afternoon and during winter), yet blocks high elevation (strong midday) sunlight – reducing heat gain and UV ray penetration.
Featuring patented, award wining LCP (Lazer Cut Panel) technology, the Angular Selective Skydome is solar passive – the sunlight entering the pyramid-shaped skylight is deflected through the lazer-cut panels positioned underneath the external glazing and channelled into the space below, resulting in a balanced level of light throughout the day.
The Angular Selective Skydome makes it possible to use skylights in climates where the strength of the sun had previously limited its use due to both heat gain and fading of internal fittings and fixtures.
The Angular Selective Skydome is ideally suited to flat steel roof installations. If the roof pitch exceeds 5 degrees, a hob design may be required.
This Australian designed and manufactured high-performance skylight has been installed in a number of profiled buildings such as: Novatel Hotel, Homebush Bay, Redcliffe Library, the Trackways Museum at Winton and the Sustainable Display Home in Rockhampton.
