Energy-efficient daylighting kit for flat or pitched roofs
Natural Light's Tubular Skylight is an easy to install, inexpensive way to light up rooms with natural light without electricity--free sunlight. A small, clear, collector dome on the roof allows sunlight to enter into a highly reflective "light pipe" that extends from the roof level to the ceiling level. The light pipe is coated with a mirror quality silver finish that allows the full spectrum of sunlight to be channeled and dispersed evenly into a room through the means of a soft white or prismatic diffuser located in the ceiling.
Natural Light Tubular Skylights come in several sizes from 10" diameter to 21" diameter and illuminate from 150 Square Feet (SF) up to 700 SF without using a drop of electricity. The amount of light produced is equivalent to 300 watts to 1,450 watts at no cost to you.
NOTE: For pitched roofs steeper than 5/12 or cathedral roof installations we recommend also purchasing an adjustable Tubular Skylight Elbow to allow for perpendicular penetration through the roof.
Unlike traditional (expensive) skylights that allow heat energy to travel directly into your home by day and leave at night, Tubular Skylights are more energy efficient because there's very little heat loss or gain associated with the system. Tubular Skylights also scatter 100% of the natural light spectrum through the use of a diffuser that eliminates the spotlight effect as well as harmful UV rays common with traditional skylights.
Tubular Skylights are also far more economical because they install in less than two hours and can be installed on any roof pitch with no painting, frame work or drywall required. Natural Light's Tubular Skylights are designed specifically to minimize the size of roof penetration and not to compromise roof integrity. Working with a vaulted or cathedral ceiling? This kit can work for that as well, with the add on of an elbow accessory to meet the perfect angle.
Each product is Energy Star and NFRC certified and warranted for 25 years. Some state and local tax credits or rebates may apply.
NOTE: These kits are custom made for each order and are non-returnable. All sales final.
