Questions about tubular skylights: "What is a tubular skylight?" If you have a dark room that you want to lighten up and have on electric light option or are tired of turning on and off lights and wasting electricity, a tubular skylight is for you! It will look like a flush light fixture on your ceiling. The reflective tubing runs through your attic to a small dome that sets on your roof. The dome collects sunlight and sends it down the tubing. You will even have moonlight from it as a night light! It runs totally on solar power. ~Tom
"Is there a problem with leaking?" No. Traditional framed in skylights will probably give you trouble at some time, but the tubular skylights like the Solatube brand are safe to use. We only install the High Wind Velocity models in the Gulf Coast area. These have been rated to 155 mph and impact resistant. All we have installed since 2002 have made it through the hurricanes with flying colors!! ~Tom
"What sizes do you have and how much are they?" We have 10" and 14" Solatubes, which give light to a 12' x 12' ft room and 16' x16' room. Prices range from $590 - $800. This includes 42" of rise from your ceiling to your roof. If more is needed, there is an extra charge. ~Tom
"How long does it take to install one?" Plan on 2-3 hours per tube if we install it for you. ~Tom
