Frequently Asked Questions

What size is this skylight?

The VCM 2246 has an opening size of 665 by 1275mm, which makes it one of the mid-to-large options in the VCM manual flat roof range. It suits rooms that need a broad window of daylight, such as open plan kitchens, living areas and home offices, while still keeping the skylight within a manageable footprint for a flat roof.

Does this skylight open?

Yes. The VCM 2246 is a manual opening skylight, so the sash opens and closes with a handle mechanism. If the window sits above arm’s reach, you can pair it with the VELUX ZCT 300 control rod, which lets you open and close the window from floor level. An insect screen is built in to keep insects out while it is open.

What roof does it suit?

This skylight is designed for flat and low pitch roofs up to 15 degrees. A flashing matched to your roof profile and material is required and is sold separately. Choose the flashing option for your roof type and finish so the skylight drains water correctly and stays weathertight over time.
