Cleaning and maintaining a VELUX roof window in pivot position

Routine maintenance helps extend the life of your roof window and prevents costly issues later.


Here’s what we recommend:


🧼 1. Clean the Glass Regularly

Most VELUX centre-pivot windows rotate 180° for safe internal cleaning.

Use:

  • Mild soapy water

  • Soft cloth (avoid abrasives)


🍂 2. Clear Debris from Flashing

Leaves and moss can trap water. Check externally once or twice a year.


🔧 3. Check Seals & Gaskets

Inspect rubber seals for cracking or deterioration.


🌬 4. Ventilate Properly

Regular opening helps prevent condensation build-up.


🛠 5. Book a Professional Inspection (If Unsure)

If your window is older or showing signs of wear, professional inspection ensures small problems don’t become expensive repairs.
