[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Planning on skylights for our new screened porch to make sure the room inside doesn't get too dark. How much do skylights increase the heat in summer? [/quote] Not at all. They are designed to reflect light via mirrors or polished metal surfaces, so most all of the radiant IR engergy is emmitted in the attic area and doesn't enter the final skylight refractor/diffusor.
