ABSTRACT:
A skylight unit includes a generally flat inner panel of light transmitting sheet plastics material, and the inner panel is covered by dome-shaped intermediate and outer panels of the light transmitting sheet plastics material. The outer peripheral edge portions of the panels are bonded together by a sealant material and by a frame of rigid foam plastics material, and the peripheral edge portion of the outer panel extends to cover the frame and to form a depending skirt portion which is bonded to the frame. The skylight unit is mounted on a curb unit which consists of a vacuum-formed sheet of plastics material having an upwardly projecting frame-shaped curb portion integrally connecting an outwardly projecting flashing portion to a downwardly projecting inner flange portion. The curb portion is filled with a rigid foam plastics material and receives threaded fasteners which extend horizontally into insert members embedded within the frame of the skylight unit.
