Transforming Porches
Adding VELUX skylights to a screened-in porch, covered patio, sunroom or four-season room illuminates the spaces and gives interior rooms much-needed additional light.
Skylights on covered porches: the power of borrowed light.
The transformative power of VELUX skylights on porches and patios.
Skylights in a sunroom or porch can greatly enhance the look, comfort, and feeling of these nature-adjacent spaces by increasing the amount of daylight and fresh air that they offer.
Natural Lighting
Whether you call it a screened-in porch, covered patio, sunroom, or four-season room, there's one thing these beloved rooms often have in common: They block natural light from your home's interior. VELUX skylights help bring natural light to these outdoor spaces and interior rooms, too.
Sky Views
Skylights provide clear views of the sky and surroundings, creating a sense of openness and connection with the outdoors. This enhances the overall ambience of a porch, making it a more inviting and enjoyable space to relax or entertain.

Frequently Asked Questions

VELUX recommends our Standard Safety Glass, which comes standard on many of our skylights. It’s not only the safest glass we offer, but it also stays cleaner longer and reduces noise by up to 25% compared to other standard double-paned glass.
