Roofglaze daylight innovations for Tesco Superstore in Bristol 
Following the successful installation of Roofglaze Lumira® (formerly Nanogel) roofilights at a number of Tesco stores around the country, main contractor ISG Pearce selected Roofglaze to supply and install Lumira rooflights and vertical polycarbonate glazing at Tesco’s new Superstore in Yate, Bristol.
The first phase of the project was undertaken in July 2011. This involved the installation of nine 6m x 6m 25mm Lumira® filled rooflights to provide natural daylight throughout the store. More
Rooflights and The Building Regulations Part L
Building Regulation Part L was introduced in the year 2000, to bring about control for the Conservation of fuel and power. The latest revision came into effect on 1 October 2010.
The energy efficiency of a building is usually calculated using specific calculation software, such as the Simplified Building Energy Model (SBEM).
Using input data for the overall building design and specific elements of the construction, SBEM calculates an emissions rate for the building. A rooflight is not a thermal element of the building, its’ U-value will always be higher than that of the surrounding roof, however, it helps to reduce the energy consumption of the building by reducing the need for artificial light and providing heat to the building by solar gain.

Rooflights save energy and reduce carbon emissions
The primary reason for including rooflights is to provide a bright, naturally lit interior and reduce the requirement for artificial lighting. Daylight has many advantages over artificial light - not least the fact that it is a completely free, unlimited natural resource. Whilst artificial light is essential, it’s provision uses a lot of energy, so reducing the requirement will dramatically cut energy use and CO2 emissions. More>
