Unit Skylights - US-6000

To fill the demand for quality pre-glazed skylgihts, EGSI has devel-open a wide range of modular skylight systems that are 100% factory assembled and glazed. All unit skylights are designed to be shop assembled and shipped to the field completed. The only field labor required by the customer is to anchor the completed units into place.

STANDARD UNITS:

Self Flashing Skylights, Extended Pyramid, Continuous Vaults, Curb Mount Skylights, Lean-To Units, Modular Components Systems, Standard or Custom Insulated Curb System, Pyramid, Polygon, Circular Dome, Ridge Units.

GLAZING:

The pre-glazed or modular systems are available in acrylic, polycarbonate and safety glass in single or insulated designs.

THERMOFORMING CAPABILITIES:
We have the largest skylight thermoforming ovens in the Midwest. Thermoforming plastics into Dome, Pyramids, Polygons, Extended Ridge and Circular units can be produced from a single sheet of UV stable acrylic in our 9' x 13' production ovens.

CUSTOME SHAPES:
Special shaes and sizes are not a problem for our large in-house fabrication deparment. Custom size glazing systems and frame finishing can all be produced by our in-house design and manufacturing services.

GLAZING
EGSI's glazing systems are designed to receive structural polycarbonate panels in thicknesses from 6mm to 25mm. EGSI's years of experience in developing quality glazing systems have been incorporated into high-tech, leak free, insulated and economical structural polycarbonate/fiberglass panel system. Panel sections (6' wide up to 22' long) are pre-glazed and designed to lock together with the patented lock seal design. No field fabrication is required.

LIGHTWEIGHT

Multiwall polycarbonate is a lightweight material that is used in the construction industry to reduce building costs while guaranteeing compliance with loading requirements.

TRANSLUCENT
A key feature of polycarbonate is its transparency. Multiwall polycarbonate enhances daylighting when integrated into roofing systems, walls, and skylights. It creates a more comfortable ambience while also ensuring good thermal insulation. Polycarbonate can be suitably tinted to modulate light transmission, optimize shading and thus reduce overheating inside the building. Colored pigments are used to achieve pleasant color effects to satisfy the most demanding aesthetic and architectural requirements.

VERASTILE
We supply an extensive range of products for use in the construction of translucent roofing and walls, skylights, fixed and operable insulated windows. Our continuous research has led to the development of a series of steel and aluminum accessories to complete the range. Our polycarbonate systems are designed to make installation simple and safe, and ensure compliance with most building codes. Our products are all tested and certified for fire rating, loading and thermal performance.

U.V. AND HAIL RESISTANT

Gallina multiwall polycarbonate is tested to ASTM standards for hail impact to ensure against the most inclement weather conditions. Gallina co-extrudes a high-performance U.V. coating to our exterior surface to ensure optimal performance under prolonged exposure to the harshest sunlight. Our products are also third-party tested and certified by ASTM standards for accelerated weathering.

SAFE
Multiwall polycarbonate has a particularly high impact strength. Our products meet the requirements and safety standards for translucent glazing in public and private work environments.

AN ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY MATERIAL
The process of extruding multiwall polycarbonate involves very low energy consumption and has a minimal impact on the environment. Polycarbonate is an energy-efficient solution and is 100% recyclable at the end of its life.
