Centre Pivot Pitched Roof Windows

With the ability to invite three times more natural light inside than vertical windows, pitched roof windows are a fantastic option for customers looking to achieve a stylish and bright home. At Roof Window Outlet, we stock a comprehensive range of pitched roof windows in an array of designs, so you can find one that perfectly meets your needs.

When choosing your pitched roof windows, there are two opening options to consider: top hung and centre pivot. While the first offers glass that fully opens from the top of the frame, centre pivot windows rotate from the middle, making them great for achieving fantastic light levels, even in those hard-to-reach corners of the home. However, both options can help you reach enhanced energy efficiency. Here are a handful of reasons why centre pivot pitched roof windows might be ideal for you…

Light, Bright and Airy

As a rule of thumb, the higher up in the roofline a window is installed, the further it can spread light. Since centre pivot pitched roof windows are designed to be fitted high up in the roof, particularly in out-of-the-way places, this window style can draw in an abundance of natural light.

You need not worry about your windows being too far up to reach, either, since manual centre pivot options come with a specially designed rod for easy opening. Customers can also opt for electronic windows, which open at the touch of a button, as well as automatic solar models that are controlled by the sun. This will allow you to achieve a light and well-ventilated interior, no matter where you choose to install your glazing.

Easy Maintenance

If not properly maintained, windows can quickly become unsightly, which in turn can impair their performance. One of the huge plus points about centre pivot pitched roof windows is that they make access for essential maintenance incredibly easy. Since they open from the centre of the frame, with 180˚ rotation, you’ll be able to reach both sides of the glass without issue, especially if the window is installed at eye level.

For those fitted in hard-to-reach parts of the roof, we also stock a range of centre pivot pitched roof windows that come with a special self-cleaning coating. For example, Velux’s GGL Double Glazed Pine Centre Pivot Pitched Roof Window offers 180° rotation and locking for easy cleaning, as well as maintenance-free exterior covers. This window can also be fitted for electric operation.

Affordability

When it comes to affordability, centre pivot pitched roof windows offer fantastic results for less. For example, Fakro’s FTP-V/C P2 Double Glazed Conservation ‘V’ Kit Pine Centre Pivot Pitched Roof Window begins at just £89.17 yet offers unbeatable performance. As well as being manufactured in natural pine for a stylish finish, this window has an automatic air inlet to prevent wind gusting, special P2 anti-burglary double glazing, and an incredible acoustic rating.

Similarly, Keylite’s Hi-Therm Double Glazed Pine Centre Pivot Pitched Roof Window starts from £202.50 and offers simple installation, thanks to its Flick-Fit switch, an integrated thermal collar for fantastic insulation, and warm edge glazing for reduced condensation. It’s also 100% BBA approved.
