Q: Do skylights impact a home’s energy efficiency rating?

• <div><p>Yes, skylights can affect a home&rsquo;s energy efficiency, either positively or negatively. Properly installed, energy-efficient skylights with Low-E coatings, double glazing, and UV-blocking glass can help regulate indoor temperatures and reduce heating and cooling costs. However, poorly insulated or older skylights can contribute to heat loss in winter and excess heat gain in summer, lowering overall energy efficiency.</p></div>

Q: What are the various types of lighting?

• <div><p>The type of lighting you choose can have a big part in the aesthetic and function of your space. Ambient lighting refers to indirect or diffused lighting that evenly reaches most areas of the space. Task lighting illuminates specific areas, such as a workspace. Accent lighting draws attention to details in your home, and decorative lighting draws attention to itself.</p></div>

Q: How do different elements influence the expense of setting up a skylight?

• <div><p>Costs depend on skylight size, roof type, and additional features like blinds or tinting.</p></div>

Q: Which types of lights are best for my project?

• <div><p>This is based on personal preference, budget, and the vibe you are going for with your holiday lighting.
