Natural Light Tubular Skylights can be installed in about 2 hours or less. Installation requires no painting, no wiring or structural changes. Natural Light has many certified dealers nationwide who can professionally install your unit, but homeowners can also install our units.
Adding the sun’s natural light to the workplace has been proven to be a healthier alternative to fluorescent or incandescent lighting. The full spectrum light of the sun creates a significantly better working environment by lifting the overall mood of employees and reducing eye strain, thereby, increasing productivity. Additionally, installing tubular skylights will greatly decrease the need for electrical lighting, resulting in energy savings and lower electric bills.
Step-by-step illustrated instructions are available for all kits to assist you. Every tubular skylight comes with all the hardware needed to complete a 48″ long run. If needed, extra light pipe can be purchased for taller installations. Angled adapters (elbows) are also available if a straight run installation is not possible. Angle adapters allow the direction of the light pipe to change up to 45 degrees on our 10″ and 13″ models and up to 30 degrees on our 18″ and 21″ models – though Natural Light recommends straight runs whenever possible to achieve the highest light output.
