ROOFLIGHT – VERANDA

Inclined glazing on a 52 mm mullion-and-transom frame, with a pitch between 12% and 85%.

Section through the CORTIZO Rooflight – Veranda system, official manufacturer image

The veranda system uses the same mullion-and-transom principle as the 52 series façades, but applied to an inclined surface. The permitted pitch is wide — between 12% (7º) and 85% (40º) — which allows both almost horizontal rooflights and verandas with a steep roof.

The glazing rebate is declared separately for the fixed lights and for the roof window. The assembly is tested to the curtain wall standards, and the projecting opening has its own, more severe, set of classes.

The thermal transmittance values published by CORTIZO are minimum values for the system, conditional on the typology, on the dimensions of the joinery and on the glazing unit. The actual value of an assembly is established by calculation, on the configuration actually ordered.

From system to finished joinery

What we do with this system

Choosing the configuration

The system offers a range; the project asks for a value. We settle the version, the glazing unit and the typology from the actual requirements of the building, not from the maximum on the data sheet.

Calculation on the actual assembly

The transmittance of a window depends on the frame-to-glass ratio. We calculate it on the actual dimensions of the openings, not on the laboratory specimen.

Our own production

Cutting, machining, assembly and glazing in our own workshop in Baia Mare, on original CORTIZO profile and with hardware approved for the system.

Installation and handover

We install with our own teams, including abroad, and hand the job over with its documents. The warranty is the one published on our warranties page.
