ABSTRACT:
A low cost skylight which can be provided in kit form for installation includes at least two rafter bow members. Each of these members has a convex upper edge and a straight lower edge. The straight lower edge of each bow member rests on a rafter at the edge of a roof opening. The skylight includes a sheet of flexible, light-transmitting material which overlays the rafter bow members. Fasteners, such as round head wood screws, are used to fasten the upper and lower edges of the flexible sheet to the roof surface. Gaskets and flashing members are disclosed for establishing watertight seals at the edges of the skylight.
