No, it’s not your traditional skylight, sun tube, solar tube, solar light, sun tunnel, or other generic solar lighting device. It is a high-performance natural lighting system that uses advanced optics to harness sunlight in a way that significantly improves how daylight is controlled and used. It gives you the option to brighten living rooms, kitchens, closets, bathrooms, and any other room in your home like never before at a fraction of the cost of other lighting options.
Who could have imagined that an explosion of light, heat, and radiation traveling from over 90 million miles away can be transformed into beautiful, efficient, and comforting light in just the last few feet? We could.

The light output from the Solatube® device is simply amazing! Solatube® tubular skylights provide as much light as you would expect from a skylight many times its size. Plus, it costs much less than other daylighting options – such as windows and skylights – even when considering both product and installation costs.
Our customers love that their solar lighting installation is fast, clean, and easy too. Unlike skylights, Solatube® natural lights require no structural reframing, tunneling, dry walling, or painting. In fact, one of our certified technicians can install the product in less than two hours.
And if you’re looking for “green” solutions for your home, the Solatube® solar light allows you to switch off electrical lights during the day, providing savings on energy bills while reducing environmental pollution.
Your home is a unique reflection of you and your style. But without proper lighting, your home may feel closed in and dark, making it difficult to read, cook, and even differentiate between colors.
With Solatube® Daylighting Systems, you can turn any dark room into a sunroom, even those on the ground floor or in the basement.
And because installing a Solatube® Daylighting System can usually be done in about two hours, you can change your light and begin enjoying a better quality of life all in the same day. So what are you waiting for?
Our busy schedules often prevent us from experiencing the things in life that are good for us, like spending time outside and soaking up the sunshine. But did you know that getting more sun could actually change your life for the better?
The benefits of daylight are indisputable: Studies have shown that it can make you more productive by boosting your energy level; it can strengthen your mental abilities by improving your concentration; and it can enhance your well-being by lifting your mood.
In your home, the positive effects of daylight offer additional benefits. Interior spaces seem larger. Colors appear truer and brighter. Your environment feels more inviting. By utilizing daylight to brighten your interior spaces you’ll also reduce your need to use electricity which makes a positive impact on the environment and lowers your utility bills.
From L to R: incandescent light, fluorescent light, Solatube® daylight.
Receive all the benefits daylight has to offer even if you don’t have time to go outside and enjoy the sunshine.
Daylight entering through the eye triggers hormone production that promotes healthy sleep / wake cycles, so we wake feeling well rested.
Sunlight causes our brains to produce serotonin, a hormone that can improve mood by alleviating pain, providing energy, and making us feel happy.
People who get regular exposure to sunlight tend to be more optimistic, sleep better at night and have a better sense of well-being.
