Unit Skylights Bring Healthy, Natural Daylight into New Dental Office

When the owners of Arvada Dental decided to open a new office near the intersection of I-70 and Wadsworth Boulevard in Arvada, CO, one of their concerns was to include daylighting in the new facility.

Daylight lifts our mood and can accelerate the recovery process.

What We Did:

• By contacting Skylight Specialists, Inc. at the empty building stage of this tenant finish facility, we were able to provide a cost effective solution.
• We supplied and installed six unit skylights manufactured by American Skylites. Tenant provided layout.

Product Used:

• 24 X 24 TSF-2-CW-MF-12 R.O. = 24″ X 24″ – 12″ Rise.
  Thermally Broken & Insulated.
  Self Flashing Unit Skylights.
  Clear/White Acrylic Domes.
  Mill Finish Frames.

Results:

The warm atmosphere, reduced glare, natural color rendition and better overall vision provided by natural daylight all contribute to a better doctor/patient experience.

Benefits:

• Correct the daylighting and solar heat levels required for the space.
• Reduce dependence on electric lighting—increase energy savings.
• Increase the facility’s property value.
• Healthy, natural daylight in the space with soft translucent light and accurate color rendition.
• No required maintenance or re-coating costs.
• In work environments, increased daylighting has been shown to increase productivity.
• In retail environments, increased daylighting has been shown to increase sales by as much as 40%.
