A skylight in a commercial building can add quite a few benefits that may make it an asset to your new construction or existing structure. Consider your goals for the space and how much natural light you’d like to add. In this article, we will explore some common advantages of installing a skylight to a commercial building.

3 Benefits of a Skylight in a Commercial Building

1. Reduced Energy Consumption

Beams of sunlight from your skylight can help to heat up a room. This can substantially lower your utility bill for use of your heating during the cold months, as you can run it on a lower temperature or less often. 

2. A More Attractive Indoor Environment

The natural light from the skylight can brighten up a dark room, making it more attractive and bright. The natural light can be appealing for communal areas, work stations, and entryways. This aesthetic change can substantially increase the value of your building.

3. Improved Productivity

Skylights allow natural sunlight into your space which has health and mood benefits. If the skylight is able to open, it can also provide cross ventilation creating a balanced temperature that allows your employees to feel comfortable while working. A regulated temperature can beneficially affect their immune systems and overall energy levels, allowing them to be productive and focused during work hours.
