OptiLight TLP-V U4 - PVC energy efficient roof window, that will work in every room, especially in the bathroom.
OptiLight TLP-V is a triple glass, plastic roof window manufactured with the use of top quality PVC, reinforced with steel profiles. They are durable and solid and their maintenance is limited to an absolute minimum. Particularly recommended for rooms with elevated humidity levels (kitchens, bathrooms or laundry rooms). But they will look great also in rest of rooms. White PVC fits to each interior design.
Benefits of PVC window. Why OptiLight TLP is a good choice:
- highly energy efficient triple glazing unit - thanks to the use of a 3-pane unit with Ug=0.7W/m2K, a U-value of the total window Uw=1.1W/m2K is achieved. Due to this structure, the OptiLight TLP-V ENERGIE is energy efficient and energy saving. Also tripple glazing reduces noises better than double one.
- air inlet - It's presence allows to air flow without opening the window. It is very comfortable in rainy days, when roof window shouldn't be opened, or when it is really cold outside. It provides air exchange, wich is very important, if you want to avoid cdensation. Efficiency of this air inlet is up to 20 [m³/h]. It is the air quantity, which flows into the room through the window with 78cm or 114 cm width and pressure difference of 10 Pa. Windows with 78cm width and bigger have in the air-inlet slat 2 openings. In windows with 55 and 66 cm width, air-inlet efficiency will be respectively lower and is 15 [m³/h]. The windows with 55 and 66 cm width are equipped with air-inlet slat with one opening.
- A large effective glazing area, which allows more light to enter the room. All windows are double glazed, and use a single chambered construction and acoustic properties, while the U coefficient of the pane is 1.1 [W/m²K]. Space between panes is filled with inert gas. The internal pane is coated with a heat reflecting low-emission layer, externall glass toughend. It helps to reduce heat loss during winter and overheating during summer.
- High quality PVC- white color, easy to clean and maintain
- Metal external cladding - Metal cladding elements of OptiLight windows are made of suitably thick aluminium sheets. The sheet is coated with polyester which is fully weather-resistant. Color brown-grey (RAL 7022)
- Operation - OptiLight windows have a centre-pivoting construction. The hinges installed in the middle of the window allow the sash to be opened in a range of positions and to be rotated up to 180 degrees. The handle design enables tight closing and two positions of micro ventilation. Silver, metal handle positioned at the bottom of the sash makes using the window easier and more comfortable, irrespective of the height at which the window is installed (in windows 94 cm wide and wider there are 2 handles mounted)
- Installation - Thanks to the construction of windows and flashings OptiLight windows can be installed on roofs at any pitch between 15o and 90o
- Taughened glass - OptiLight windows has been equipped with taughened external glass, which prevents from glass damaging. And in case of breaking, sharp pieces won't fall down and hurt anybody.

Do I need flashing? Which flashing to choose?
A flashing is an essential element allowing correct installation of a roof windowin the roof slope. The precisely designed elements of the flashing enable tight and durable integration of the window with roofing. It is very important as the main task of the flashing is to drain water and snow away from the window and protect it against the wind. The flashings are manufactured from aluminium sheet, coated with polyester lacquer. The basic color is Grey – brown (RAL 7022), thanks to which windows fit to standard colors of roofing materials. Flashings are used for connecting the windows with roofing and it is the roofing which decides about their selection.
There are following available flashings:
- Standard flashings - to wavy and flat roof coverings
- Thermo flashings - with additional insulation
For high – profiled coverings up to 90mm:
