Haeger Skylight
Here the current "Fixed Window" skylight
has leaked for some time now and being in place for over 20yrs, it's
usefulness is completed and it is time to replace this Velux Skylight
with a more modern "Venting" unit. The one challenge to this
installation is placing a smaller unit into a larger opening when an
existing size cannot be match by Velux due to the age of the unit and
the fact that sizes have been updated over time. So the goal is to
"build in" the opening, install a new unit and trim the interior using
primed wood rather then having a sheetrock finish.
The Velux unit to be installed will be a
VS-308, using the EDL step flashing method to seal it to the roof.
