      ByJul 20, 2026

      Answer This Question

      Elizabeth, the flashing kit you will need is determined by the roof pitch and roof material you will be installing with. Please contact us with the details of your project and we will be glad to assist you in making the correct choice. You can contact the Customer Service Team at 1-800-888-3589 between 8:00 am - 7:00 pm (Mon- Fri) or 9 am- 5pm (Sat) EST. Or you can email us at vcustomer.service@velux.com.

        If this is being used on a shingle roof, the flashing kit is called: ECL 1446 0000C. For tile or thick shake material, the kit needed is: ECW 1446 0000C.

                Can this be installed on a metal roof?
                ByJun 8, 2026
                1 Answer | 
                Answer This Question

                Yes, you can install this skylight onto a metal roof. (up to 60 degree roof pitch) Your roofer or installer will need to fabricate their own flashing for this application as VELUX does not have a kit for this roofing material type.

                  I need to replace an existing damaged opening skylight (original manufacturer, Sunoptics, no longer makes residential skylights). The existing curb opening including flashing is 26.5 inches by 38 inches. What skylight will fit?

                  Answer This Question

                  Please give VELUX a call at the Customer Service Team M-F at 1-800-888-3589 between 8:00 am - 7:00 pm and Sat 9:00 am - 5:00 pm Eastern time. We can discuss your measurements and application to help you find the best product to meet your needs. The VCM/VCS/VCE models in size 2234 have an outside curb measurement of 25-1/2" x 37-1/2" and a maximum skylight clearance of 26-5/8" x 38-5/8", this may work for you, but I would recommend calling so we can get all of the details from you and have a clear understanding of what is needed for the correct replacement.

                    Velux skylights - 1 good 1 not
                    We replaced older acrylic dome skylights with Velux glass units and flashing kits. We added a strip of putty tape to the top edge of the curbing to ensure a good seal. One skylight had a mfg defect on a short edge that looked like it was repaired with black caulking prior to packaging. We were installing 3 hours out of city so could not do a return as roofers were leaving end of day. We installed that skylight with repaired edge at the top hoping there will be no leaks. I would have given better rating if not for that issue. Velux should have labeled the packaging of that box regarding a repair so we would have known from the get go when we picked them up in the online order area. Disappointing for sure.

                    Great replacement for my old bubble skylights. The curb this skylight requires is just a little bit bigger than the hole for the bubble skylight. So I didn't need to do anything to my interior ceiling.

                        Great skylight
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My skylights were replaced 5months ago and they are just perfect.

                          Great improvement!
                          My son lives at A townhouse and the skylights were old & leaking. I ordered two of these skylights and the flashing kit also. I had a man that does roofing work on the side install it The skylights were heavy because these were big ones 46 x 46, but three guys got Them up The ladder. I am so glad that I did it as a DIY and not have to go thru a roofing company and pay a ton. It looks great, 100% improvement. We had a recent rain and no leaks. Very happy!

                            The product is exactly as described. The seal works very well, so no air leaks. Clean design, and fast delivery!
