Installation and preparation
Before installation, inspect the window frame and glazing for any transport damage. Check that your roof opening is square and level, and that the surrounding structure is sound and properly flashed. Ensure you have the correct flashing kit for your roof type and pitch. The pre-fitted blind brackets are ready to use once the window is installed. Plan your installation to allow the window to be fully rotated during fitting to confirm smooth operation. Follow VELUX installation instructions carefully, as improper fitting can affect weatherproofing and operation.

Operation and maintenance
The top control bar is the primary operating mechanism. Open it to the ventilation position for air circulation without fully opening the window. The 180-degree rotation allows you to safely clean the outer glass from inside without external access equipment. The removable ventilation filter should be checked regularly and cleaned or replaced as needed to maintain air quality and filter effectiveness. The toughened and laminated glazing requires only standard window cleaning methods.
