Installation and positioning
Install this centre-pivot window in pitched roof applications where the roof slope is suitable for VELUX roof windows. The top control bar design allows you to position the window lower than traditional models, giving you better sightlines and flexibility with furniture layout below. Ensure the rough opening matches the PK10 size specification (94x160cm) and follow VELUX installation guidelines for flashing, insulation and weatherproofing. The window can be installed in various roof pitches within the VELUX range.

Operation and ventilation
Operate the window using the top control bar, which provides intuitive opening and closing even with furniture positioned below. The window features a dedicated ventilation position where you can open the top control bar to allow fresh air circulation while keeping the window effectively closed. This is particularly useful for maintaining air quality without full window opening. The removable and cleanable ventilation filter protects your home from dust and insects during ventilation, and should be checked and cleaned regularly depending on your local environment and air quality.

- Clean and replace ventilation filter regularly to maintain airflow

Cleaning and maintenance
The 180-degree rotation capability is a key safety feature, allowing you to rotate the window fully for safe cleaning of the outer glass from inside your home. This eliminates the need for external access equipment or working at height on the roof. The window comes with premium safety lamination and toughened glass as standard, providing durability and security. Regular maintenance involves checking the ventilation filter, ensuring the control bar operates smoothly, and inspecting seals and flashing for any signs of water ingress.
