Solar Powered Flat Roof Rooflight with Wireless Operation

The VELUX CVU Solar Opening Flat Glass Double Glazed Rooflight combines outstanding natural daylight, effortless ventilation and renewable solar power in one premium rooflight solution. Designed for flat roofs and low-pitched roofs between 2° and 15°, it is perfect for home extensions, kitchens, living areas, garden rooms and commercial buildings where electrical wiring may not be practical.

Featuring VELUX’s innovative glass-to-edge design, the CVU Solar rooflight provides up to 52% more natural daylight than previous generation dome rooflights. Its sleek, frameless appearance complements both contemporary and traditional architecture while flooding interiors with natural light throughout the year.

Brighten Your Home with Natural Light and Fresh Air

The VELUX CVU Solar rooflight helps create healthier, brighter living spaces by combining abundant daylight with convenient wireless ventilation. Open or close the rooflight at the touch of a button to improve airflow and maintain a comfortable indoor climate without the need for mains electricity.

Perfect for kitchens, bathrooms and open-plan living spaces, the solar-powered operation makes installation simpler while reducing disruption during fitting.

Powered by the Sun

The integrated solar panel charges the built-in battery using daylight, providing reliable operation throughout the year. Because the rooflight is self-powered, there is no requirement for a mains electrical connection, making it an excellent choice for both new installations and refurbishment projects.

Supplied with a pre-paired wireless wall switch, the rooflight is ready to operate straight after installation. An integrated rain sensor automatically closes the rooflight when rainfall is detected, helping to protect your home even when you’re away.

Excellent Thermal Performance

The double glazed unit delivers exceptional thermal insulation, helping reduce heat loss in winter while limiting unwanted solar gain during warmer months. High-performance insulation built into the frame minimises thermal bridging, improving the energy efficiency of your property.

The glazing also provides excellent acoustic insulation, reducing external noise for a quieter and more comfortable indoor environment.

Safe, Durable and Weather Resistant

Built to VELUX’s renowned quality standards, the CVU Solar rooflight is designed to withstand the demands of the British climate. The scratch-resistant outer pane is easy to maintain, while the laminated inner safety glass helps prevent glass from falling into the room if the outer pane is damaged.

Its durable construction offers dependable protection against wind, rain and snow, ensuring years of reliable performance.
