The Schueco AWS Roof Window system brings natural daylight into spaces where vertical windows are not possible. Engineered for water-tight performance at low roof pitches, it's ideal for atriums, stairwells, and architectural skylights.

Key Features

  • Designed for roof pitches from 15° to 90°
  • Superior water-tight performance
  • Openable for ventilation or fixed
  • Integrated solar shading options
  • Chain-operated or motorized opening
  • Self-cleaning glass option

Technical Specifications

Glazing Range 6–44 mm
Roof Pitch 15° to 90°
Max Size 1500 × 2500 mm

Functionality

The roof window system is specifically engineered for inclined installation, with drainage channels designed to handle rainwater at various angles. Opening mechanisms can be manual chain-operated or motorized with rain sensors for automatic closing.

How It Works

The profile geometry includes enhanced drainage channels that prevent water pooling at any roof pitch. A raised frame collar lifts the glazing above the roof surface for effective water run-off. Thermal break technology prevents condensation on the interior frame surface.

Ideal Use Cases

Atrium skylights Stairwell lighting Bathroom roof lights Kitchen overhead glazing Commercial lobby ceilings
