Thermally Broken Roof Hatch

Thermalblock Series™ Series energy-efficient roof hatches provide a solution to reducing building energy costs with an R-value of 20. Two continuous gaskets with low thermal conductivity create a thermal block between the outside and the inside.  The durable construction and finish are designed to withstand heat, cold, and UV exposure. 

When the weather outside is colder, this combination of insulation and gasketing moderates the temperature on the inside of the roof hatch reducing condensation and icing.  The roof hatch can also reduce the amount of heat transferred from a warming exterior, keeping air conditioning costs lower.

The curb and the cover have 3" of polyisocyanurate insulation to give the thermal resistance of R-20.  a continuous seal around the cover maintains an air barrier between the interior and exterior..  A counterbalanced lid and easy-to-operate handle allow one-handed operation.
