The invention relates to covering a gap between windows at the ridge of a double pitch skylight including at least one pair of windows. Each window comprises a frame with a frame top member and the windows of a pair are interconnected by one or more mounting brackets at the ridge. A cover element is arranged so that it interconnects the two windows of the pair on the interior side and extends in parallel with the ridge length direction. One edge of the cover element is inserted in a groove in the top frame member of one window of the pair and another opposite edge is inserted in a corresponding groove in the other window. The cover element is preferably made from an airtight material, is preferably convex on the interior side in the mounted state, and is preferably provided with elastic connecting parts at the two opposite edges.
A method for covering a gap between windows at a ridge of a double pitch skylight including at least one pair of windows, where each window comprises a frame with a frame top member, an exterior side facing an exterior, an interior side facing an interior of the building, and a set of mounting brackets, said windows of said pair being mounted with their frame top members extending in parallel with each other and in parallel with a ridge length direction, and said windows of said pair being inclined in opposite directions so that an interior ridge angle between their interior sides is less than 180 degrees, said windows of said pair being interconnected by one or more of said mounting brackets at the top frame member of one window being connected to one or more corresponding mounting brackets at the top frame member of the other window,
