The benefits of AC OCM – Manual Venting
Acrylic Dome Skylight
Allowing for the expelling of hot air build up, airborne odours and pollutants, naturally improving your home’s interior environment without relying exclusively on costly air conditioning.
Fresh Air Ventilation
- Improve the health of your home’s interior environment with the clarity and brightness of natural light and fresh air ventilation. Breathe in, and feel the revitalizing power of fresh air.
- Natural ventilation allows you to release toxic pollutants and odors, and moderate the temperature of your home by expelling hot air that has accumulated in your upper floor.
The Benefit of Natural Light
- Living in the north we all need more natural daylight in our homes, particularly during the winter months when days are shorter, there are fewer hours of sunlight, and the sun is at a lower angle than during the summer.
- Natural light has been proven to increase happiness and productivity.
- Increasing the amount of natural light in your home offsets the impact of Seasonal Affective Disorder, which affects many people in the winter when they do not receive enough sunlight.
- Natural light has been shown to lower the risk of nearsightedness in children and young adults by helping the eye produce dopamine, which aids in healthy eye development.
Economical and Adds Value
- Columbia curb mounted skylights are manufactured in Canada using materials from across North America, making them less costly compared to foreign products.
- Skylights add to the value of your home as it is highly desirable to bring natural light into your home.
Manual Operation
- Your venting skylight comes standard with a crank handle, ideal for skylights that are within easy reach.
- You can choose to purchase a telescopic pole to operate your skylight if it just out of reach. Available in 4ft to 6ft and 6ft to 10ft lengths. Compatible with venting curb mount and self flashing models. Hex ball adapter included.

Why Columbia
Canadian made skylights, designed for our harsh climate
Columbia skylights are specifically designed for life in our Canadian climate. Whether subjected to snow, ice, wind, hail, or intense heat, our products are engineered to outperform these demanding conditions.
Many imported skylights are designed for a more temperate climate and lack the performance and durability. Columbia has spent many decades manufacturing premium quality skylights that have stood up to the test of time in our Canadian climate.
Every aspect of the skylight has been studied, engineered, and tested.
Columbia utilizes the best materials available, including the latest glass technology.
Energy efficiency is a concern for Canadian homeowners because of our extreme climate. Columbia is the only Canadian manufacturer to offer Triple Glazing on all our skylight models, fixed and venting. We offer more ENERGY STAR® glass options than any other manufacturer.
New Mississauga distribution warehouse to better serve Ontario, Quebec & the Maritimes
We have relocated our eastern distribution warehouse to a newly constructed facility in Mississauga, Ontario. Columbia’s new distribution warehouse is larger and able to store a full range of ready to deliver Columbia, Slimlite, and FAKRO products.
The warehouse allows us to serve Eastern Canada with greater efficiency, and improved delivery times.
