When it comes to bringing natural light and fresh air into your home, skylights are the perfect solution. But not all skylights are created equal. For Canadian homeowners, the best choice is clear—Columbia Skylights, proudly manufactured in Canada.
Support Canadian Manufacturing
By choosing Columbia Skylights, you’re investing in Canadian jobs and the local economy. Unlike our largest competitor, whose skylights are made in the USA, Columbia employs a Canadian workforce and manufactures its skylights right here in Canada. Our business supports Canadian workers, their families, and communities.
With facilities in British Columbia and Ontario, we can deliver to any region of our great country within three days—providing the industry’s fastest delivery times.
Additionally, we produce a superior product specifically designed for the demands of a northern climate, and recognized by ENERGY STAR® Canada for exceptional performance for three of the last four years.
Built Stronger to Perform Better, Last Longer, and Never Leak
Not all skylight frames are built the same. Columbia Skylights stand apart with:
- A Stronger Outer Frame – Our thick extruded aluminum frame provides superior strength and rigidity.
- A Rigid PVC Inner Frame – Featured insulated air chamber design and a wide condensation gutter, our inner frame enhances energy efficiency and directs moisture safely to the outside, preventing light well staining and damage, experienced by some competitive skylights.
These two components work together to create superior strength and energy efficiency. Columbia Skylights have a superior internal structure compared to imported products—for a good reason: Canada’s harsh climate. A skylight manufactured for the U.S. market isn’t designed for Canadian conditions.
- Flexible Moisture Seal Technology – Columbia frames are sealed to the top of the curb using silicone or flexible roofing tape. Our competitor recommends friction alone. We chose this method because a curb is made of lumber, which can be uneven. A pliable seal fills the gaps, eliminating the risk of cold air or moisture seepage.
At Columbia, we stand behind our skylights and suggest you investigate the skylight design and construction before you buy—especially since they will sit on your roof for decades. Our warranty is industry leading and meets or exceeds any competitor.

Energy Efficiency You Can Trust
Energy efficiency isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a necessity. Columbia Skylights are ENERGY STAR® certified, meaning they meet or exceed stringent energy efficiency guidelines set by the Canadian government. This certification ensures that your skylight will help reduce energy consumption, lower heating and cooling costs, and contribute to a more sustainable environment.
Columbia is the only skylight manufacturer in North America to be recognized by ENERGY STAR—an achievement no other skylight manufacturer can match. As a matter of fact, our skylights have been awarded special recognition by ENERGY STAR Canada three of the last four years.
