By installing a solar tube, you can bring abundant natural light into your interior spaces, transforming them into bright and inviting areas. The detailed steps and considerations outlined in this guide give you the knowledge and confidence to embark on a successful solar tube installation.
Take the following steps to prepare yourself for a seamless installation: Look thoroughly at your interior space and identify areas that lack sufficient natural light. A solar tube installation can greatly benefit common spaces, including bathrooms, hallways, and dark corners.
The inside of the solar tube is lined with a super-reflective coating which amplifies sunlight as it travels through to the other end of the tube. Its function is similar to that of a skylight, which is to allow natural light through a roof into an interior space, such as basements, dark corridors and bathrooms.
Be sure to check if you have a current roofing warranty from your roofing installer. If you attempt a solar tube install yourself, you may void it. You’ll need a roof pitch angle between 3 x 12 inches and 20 x 12 inches (roughly 14° to 60°), as almost all the models aren’t engineered for flat roofs or extreme slopes.
A solar tube can be anywhere from 10 to 22 inches wide, and provides lots of natural sunlight, even on cloudy days. Solar tubes offer some significant advantages compared to traditional skylights. They’re less expensive and easier to install, and they prevent the kind of heat loss (and gain) that can come with a full-sized window in your roof.
