VELUX Solar Powered Venting Deck Mount Skylight with White Solar Powered Shade brings in abundant natural light and refreshing airflow—perfect for spaces that crave daylight and better air quality. It’s designed to mount directly on the roof deck over a rough opening and works with a wide variety of roofing materials, all without needing electrical wiring during installation.

The solar panel powers a highly efficient battery-powered operator and control system, and it doesn’t need direct sunlight to work—cloudy days are no excuse to miss out on fresh air. The room darkening shade uses a double-pleated honeycomb structure with an interior aluminum coating to block even the brightest sunlight, making it ideal for bedrooms, entertainment rooms, or any space where light control matters. By helping prevent thermal heat gain, skylight shades can improve the energy efficiency of your skylights by up to 40% compared to skylights without shades.
