Flexible tubes
Flexible tubes are recommended for installation around obstacles such as air conditioning ducts or electrical wires within the attic space. Because of their maneuverability, they are the most accessible product.
- Excellent for ease and speed of installation
- Easily bends around attic obstructions
- Helps diffuse sunlight in short runs
- Ideal for shorter tunnel runs
Rigid tubes
Rigid tubes are recommended when the path from the roof to the ceiling is straight and unobstructed, although they can be maneuvered slightly.
- Flexi Loc™ tube systems for easy and speedy tube assembly
- Brighter white light
- Excellent for long runs
Sun tunnels come in 22”. However, because of their sizes 10” 14”, are the most common sizes. the 22″ is rarely used in residential areas. It is mainly used in large rooms or commercial spaces.
Decorative Diffusers
Choose from 6 different diffuser options for your VELUX Sun Tunnel® Skylight.
The Cost 2 Sun Tunnels Light Up A Room
The actual solar tube item will cost between $600 and $1,000 per tube, and the installation will cost roughly $800.00 to $1,000 per tube, depending on obstructions or the roof system. However, you may need to pay extra for adapters if your roof is made of metal, tile, or material other than asphalt shingles. A sun tunnel won’t let in as much light as a traditional skylight, but it still provides enough light to brighten dark rooms in the middle of a home. That’s why you need to think strategically about the room in which it’s installed. We recommend sun tunnels for rooms in the middle of a house without windows for natural light, hallways, and bathrooms.
The Installation
We will go to your home and find where you would like natural light. Then, we would go into the attic, access the area for difficulty, and provide an installation price. Once we agree to proceed, we will cover the floor area for protection and then cut a hole into the ceiling; after that, we will install the top part of the sun tunnel on the roof. Once both parts are prepared, we will enter the attic again and connect the two. The typical time frame is half a day, and you enjoy the nice bright natural outdoor light in your laundry, closet, or hallway. We can install 1or 2 sun tunnels to light up a room of your choice quickly and efficiently.
Energy Saving
Sun tunnels are energy-saving by allowing natural light to illuminate a darkened room. You will only turn on the light switch on some days. A sun tunnel can shine at night when as little as a half moon out. The moonlight will light up the room.
We Provide A No Leak Warranty
We can install a sun tunnel into most roof types and guarantee it will not leak. Call us today at 321-914-3360 for a free estimate to lighten your dark areas, or email us here.
