Do Skylights Make My Home Hot? Debunking Myths with Advanced Technology

When it comes to home improvements, skylights have long been a popular choice for bringing natural light and a sense of openness into living spaces. However, a common concern among homeowners is whether installing skylights could lead to increased heat during summer months and heat loss in winter. This is where Cambridge Skylights, equipped with the groundbreaking Thermix® TX Pro® Warm Edge spacer, redefine the narrative.
