FAQ

Q: Why should I use "Supporting" Lighting Tiles instead of generic skylight sheets?
A: "Supporting" tiles are molded to match the exact pitch and profile of your primary resin tiles. Using generic sheets often leads to gaps at the overlaps, causing leaks. Our matching tiles ensure a 100% watertight seal and a uniform look for the entire roof.

Q: Are these supporting tiles strong enough to be walked on during installation?
A: While we always recommend using walk boards for safety, our supporting lighting tiles are made from reinforced, high-tensile polymers. They offer excellent load-bearing capacity and impact resistance, far exceeding standard thin plastic sheets.

Q: How do these tiles handle the thermal expansion of the main roof?
A: Since our supporting tiles share similar physical properties with ASA resin tiles, they expand and contract at nearly the same rate. This thermal compatibility prevents buckling or cracking at the fastening points, ensuring long-term stability.

Q: Do they require special fasteners for installation?
A: No, they can be installed using the same waterproof screw sets as your ASA tiles. However, because they provide natural light, we recommend ensuring the purlin spacing meets our technical specifications to maintain the best aesthetic and structural results.

Q: Can these tiles be customized to match different colors or opacity levels?
A: Yes. While clear or "frosted" white are standard for maximum light, we can adjust the opacity to provide diffused lighting, which prevents "hot spots" inside the building and creates a more comfortable working environment for factory staff.
