Roof lanterns in Dyfed

Western and upland parts of the UK get more rain and more wind-driven rain than the east, and that's what finds weak cappings and blocked eaves first. Lanterns here benefit from a check of the bars on the most exposed face and a clear eaves channel before winter.

Coastal wind drives rain hard against lanterns, so cappings and ridge seals on the seaward face take the most punishment.
