About Wasco Products
Wasco Products is a Sanford, Maine manufacturer of skylights, roof windows, and specialty roof glazing products for residential and commercial construction. Founded in 1958 — the name derived from founder Walter A. Scott Company — Wasco has operated as a domestic skylight manufacturer serving contractors and distributors with standard and custom skylight units from its New England production base for more than six decades.
Wasco's product line includes fixed and venting curb-mount and deck-mount skylights in flat glass and domed acrylic configurations, commercial smoke and heat vents, and specialty roof opening products for industrial and institutional facilities. The company's glass skylight products address the residential and light commercial market, where flat glass fixed and low-profile deck-mount units are specified in renovation and new construction projects requiring daylighting without mechanical ventilation. Venting skylight configurations provide natural ventilation benefit alongside daylighting, supporting energy code compliance paths in climates where operable skylights count toward air change requirements.
For contractors and architects specifying skylights in the northeastern United States and mid-Atlantic markets, Wasco is a regionally familiar brand with domestic production and direct distribution. Skylight projects should identify curb or deck mounting configuration, glazing material (tempered, laminated, or acrylic dome), venting or fixed operation, and flashing kit compatibility with the roof assembly type before committing to specification. Lead times and availability for non-standard sizes should be confirmed with the manufacturer or regional distributor prior to finalizing project schedules.
