that extra natural light.

light into attic spaces, a popular method of increasing usable living
space. A Woodroffe Roof Window will allow you to bring the outside natural
beauty indoors ... as well as adding value to your home.

Quality And Innovation
|
For over 70 years, Woodroffe have serviced the building industry
in Australia as suppliers of quality metal building products. In
addition we have become one of the country's leading designers and
manufacturers of quality natural lighting products.
The design of the Woodroffe Roof Window has been carefully developed
to maintain the heritage character of older style homes, and also
to complement the latest architecture and modern designs of buildings.
The Woodroffe Roof Window has been selected for many projects including
the prestigious Finger Bay Wharf project at Woolloomooloo N.S.W.,
where 400 Roof Windows were required, and the Kensington Banks project
at Flemington, Victoria. Many architects, building designers and
government departments are specifying and installing the Woodroffe
Roof Window, not only because they are manufactured in Australia,
but because they believe the product to be of international standard.
Woodroffe has over 20 years experience in the manufacture of skylights,
and are winners of Four Australian Design Awards. Woodroffe is a
Quality Endorsed Company (ISO9001), a member of the SIA and HIA

Outside: This is the overall outside dimension of the Surround,
i.e. the size of the Roof Window as it appears on a roof.
Throat: This is the internal dimension of the Liner, i.e. the size
of the Roof Window as it appears from inside a room.
Penetration: This is the minimum dimension required between purlins
(without removing & trimming) to enable the Roof Window to be installed.
This dimension is taken from outside of the gyprock fixing angle.
Installation
The Woodroffe Roof Windows are completely finished ready to install.
Installation is made easy due to the integral 'one piece' flashing system,
also saving valuable on-site time.
As the product has been especially engineered for Australian conditions,
there is a range of flashings available to suit not only tile, but corrugated
and decking profile metal roofing across all roof pitches (2°-85°)
For detailed installation instructions, please contact your
nearest distributor.

Glazing Performance
The Roof Window features outstanding solar control characteristics, in
both glass and acrylic glazing applications. Both materials offer low
UV transmittance (up to 99% elimination) and year round comfort due to
excellent thermal performance.
Depending upon the type selected, critical performance figures range
from 0.55-0.95 for the shading co-efficient and 3.5-6.0 for the U-Value.
Other factors that have been considered are the maximum visible Light
Transmittance, Solar Transmittance, the maximum elimination of Ultra Violet
Light and Noise Reduction.
For further information on the performance of these points, please
request a specification sheet.
NATA Testing (NATA - National Association of Testing
Authorities, Australia)
The complete Woodroffe Roof Window product range has been tested to meet
SIA accreditation. The testing was conducted in a NATA certified laboratory
in accordance with the Australian Standard AS 4285-1995 Skylights. The
three tests conducted were (1) Watertightness (2) Resistance to Concentrated
Loads (3) Resistance to Wind Pressures. In all tests, both products exceeded
minimum requirements.
