Hello to all the builders/roofers/window fitters

I need Unvented Rooflights/Windows. Would like them Non-openable since that seems to better U value and mine are around 6 meters up, so would never be able to open them anyways.

America does some great, cheap windows . Since their Houses are Airconditioned they do Velux ones as a standard



You can find them here for example:

Now the whole importing from US process puts me off a bit , but they are much better and much cheaper then all the Fakro offers and also much better (For my purpose) than the UK Velux windows that open.



Now finally the question:



I had some Flatroof Rooflight companies claiming that it was absolute no problem installing Flatroof lights (which also have fairly decent U value, quite cheap)

into a pitched roof (mine is 34 degrees)

Now i do not know if this is just Salesmen talk or if it can be done without a problem.





Please enlighten me
 
I imagine it would boil down to the correct flashing kit. Something you would need to ask the supplier.
