Hi
I know this query is about windows, but I looked through the Windows / Doors forum and all the posts were about issues with windows rather than where best to install them. So posted here instead. Sorry if I've got it wrong.
I'm looking to get my property re-roofed and the attic room 'done up' this summer. It would be nice to also increase the amount of light in the room so it's a nicer place to be.
Unfortunately the front of the house faces not far off west (a bit north of west) so tends not to get much sun. So I've used a website that overlays the sun's path hour-by-hour onto google maps and have attached the image here. On the image, up is just a bit north of west. The green box is my house.
My question is where is best for me to put veluxes to make the attic as light as possible?
I'm guessing close to the ridge is better so long as I'm not interested in the views? Would they be more effective if there's two together in the centre or spaced apart?
Thanks
