Common Questions
1
What is the Daylight Factor (DF)?
The Daylight Factor is the ratio of internal illuminance to external illuminance under an overcast sky, representing the efficiency of a window system in providing natural light.
2
What is a good Daylight Factor for a living room?
Typically, a DF of 2% or more is considered good for general tasks, while 5% or more makes the room look very brightly lit.
