Solar Tube Installation

What This Service Involves

Solar tubes capture rooftop daylight and pipe it through a reflective tube into interior spaces that stay dark. They're ideal for hallways, closets, and small baths where a full skylight isn't practical, and they install with minimal roof disruption. The domed rooftop unit is flashed to stay watertight through our wet seasons. The result is free, natural daylight in the rooms that need it most.
