New roof lantern fitted - is this right?

[Tbowyer]

We’ve had a new roof lantern fitted as part of an extension but when we had a look we noticed there’s what looks to be an air gap on every single corner.

this just feels wrong to me, can anyone confirm if this is as wrong as it seems?

we can get a finger in to the gaps so it seems like air can definitely flow freely through the gap

Very hard to work out what we're looking at with that photo. Could the gap be for ventilation?

Are you living in a lighthouse? No idea what a roof lantern is… guess I should have just passed on by. But I am so nosy.

Oh great. Now I want one 🙄

Does your roof lantern come with rain sensors? They close when it begins to rain.

I can't tell anything from that photo. Can you do a better photo to show what you mean?

My roof lantern is completely sealed. No air gaps. It's at an angel so water doesn't sit on it.

Not sure if this helps

"The air gap is a must if you want to apply radiant barriers to your roof or industrial constructions. An air gap between the roof’s surface and a radiant barrier is compulsory."

this was when I looked up the roof lanterns and air gap
