Enjoy daylight & fresh air The semi-transparent fabric filters out direct sunlight while allowing daylight and fresh air to flow into your room. Simple to use Manually operated with hooks which can be placed in two positions; either fully rolled up or down. How to indentify your VELUX window 1. Locate the ID plate The window type and size can be found on the top of your window. This will be located on the right or left hand side of the window when it is open. 2. Note the type and size code The first code is the window type e.g. GGL, GGU. The second code is the window size e.g. M08. ​3. Find your product The appearance of the window type and size can look different depending on which model of VELUX roof window you have but they follow the same format, window type first followed by window size. Review: Brilliant product! Reduces glare and heat to our roof rooms in France. - This product was used to reduce the heat and glare from two Velux roof windows - the roof has been converted to a bedroom for our grandsons in France. Immediately the blinds were installed, you could feel the difference. I am so pleased that as soon as we return home, I shall order four more. The quality of the product is exceptional and my husband had no difficulty affixing them. Having seen the quality of the blinds, we shall also measure up for the anti- mosquito frames. Genuinely delighted with this product and can thoroughly recommend them. Review: Fantastic product - has made a massive difference - We live in a two storey townhouse and have five Velux windows on our top floor. In the summer months, the top floor becomes unbearably hot and we had to invest in a portable air conditioner just to cope. These Velux anti-heat blinds are absolutely brilliant in helping keep temperatures down. They cite that they block up to 80% of the suns rays and can cool a room down by up to 4 degrees and I’d say that sounds legitimate from my experience. It’s been much more comfortable in our house since we installed these blinds and we can still see outside perfectly fine too. They can be retrofitted to any Velux blind as they fit into pre-existing slots or use existing screws. Brilliant product, especially for the price. ## Features - No tape measure required. For the right size, find the window code reference located at the top of the open VELUX roof window - Compatible with VELUX roof windows with reference codes: GGL 2, GGL MK04, GGL MK06, GGL MK08, GGL MK10, GGU MK04, GGU MK06, GGU MK08, GGU MK10, GPL MK04, GPL MK06, GPL MK08, GPL MK10, GPU MK04, GPU MK06, GPU MK08, GPU MK10, GTU MK08, GGL 304, GGL 306, GGL 308, GGL 310, GGL M04, GGL M06 - Stops strong sunlight before it reaches the window pane, reducing heat in-take by up to 77% - Manual operation with hooks - while not in use, the blind rolls up out of sight under its casing.
