What is a Tube Skylight?

POWER of the SUN

A Tube Skylight helps reflect natural light to the inside and provides a green alternative to electric lighting.  


This concept dates back to Ancient Egyptian architecture and was first patented in London by Paul Emile Chappuis in the 1850s. Later in 1986, it was re-discovered in Australia and is now marketed for widespread residential and commercial applications worldwide.


PRODUCT COMPONENTS


 ▪ DOME ASSEMBLY - installed on roof, on top of flashing, allows natural light to enter the tube. Secondary dome improves light distribution by avoiding hot spots within the tube.


 ▪ FLASHING - sturdy, aluminum base, installed and sealed on top of roof.


 ▪ TUBE - aluminum, reflective tubes run from roof to ceiling. These help re-direct natural light into the desired dark area.


 ▪ CEILING ASSEMBLY - dual prismatic diffuser and white trim rings help keep the heat out while providing an elegant design.


Tube Skylights are amazing! 

At least that is the face our customers show when they see the results. Tube Skylights require very LOW MAINTENANCE and use an UNLIMITED RESOURCE - our SUN. Even on an overcast day, natural light can improve any living & working environment.

    "Exciting day! About 6 months ago I saw a few videos of a lesser known trade called #metalspinning and it looked fascinating.
    I started chatting with a few people over Instagram and asking questions. One of the nicest companies I've had the pleasure of dealing with helped set me up with some tools and starting metal circles.
    @solumaxmfg You guys are the best.
    Now to make the tool rest and turn the first form!"
