I can't get over the brightness!
I love my new Solatube in the bathroom; it lights up the whole space especially the shower area which was so dark! I would highly recommend this product to my friends and family:)

We'd recommend them!
We used Solatube for our condo association skylights (5 total). We decided to use this company thanks to the reasonable quote, product quality, and skylight warranty.

It's the best addition we've made!
Our new Solatube has made our home feel more open and inviting.

Invest in the beauty of sunlight.
10 inch Solatube in the hallway. Simple, but effective and it does the job.
-
My living room feels so open.
I had a Solatube It was super dark in there, and now it has added so much light and brightness - plus is saving me money on my electrical bill since we rarely have to turn on the lights anymore. Additionally, our old bathroom fan took FOREVER to empty the steam out of the room. The new fan is very efficient and the room is cleared within a minute of turning off the hot water.

Wonderful results! We went from having a hallway light on for 18 hours each day to only at night. So pleased with how light and bright it makes the space

Skylights brighten every corner.
We are thrilled with our Solatube. It feels like the dark corner of our dining room is lit by sunshine now.

The design stands out.
I was worried it will look weird, but it's actually quite subtle. Just adds a nice, soft light to the room. will definitely buy more.

Solatubes are the bomb.
Once again, brought light and happiness into my world - this time, my master bath. In previous houses I owned it was the kitchen, great room, and upstairs hallway. They know what they're doing. Don't live life in the dark!

Transformation!
Had a solatube in my laundry. Its turned a black box into a light-filled space and I’m delighted,

Will soon add a fourth.
I now have three Sola-tubes as they do a nice job of bringing natural light to dark areas in my house. The two that are 10 years old still work great.

It is no longer dark.
I purchased a Solatube for my hallway which is always dark. Since I just got it I now feel like this was a good idea and wish I did this sooner. It is nice to walk from one room to the other without going through a dark hallway in between. The light looks like a ceiling light, but it is really sunlight.
-
Our old solar tube lights were decades old and really warn out. Then came Solatube with amazing new lights to replace our old ones, even more beautiful and translucent than in their pictures.
-
The solar tube adds wonderful natural light into small space.

Great investment.
We had a dark area in our kitchen and always needed a light on. After getting the solatube installed the difference is literally night and day. We haven't needed the lights on during the day since. Highly recommended.
-
I'm so glad I installed them!
im pretty happy with my Solatube it adds great light to the area below it. Im not so thrilled with the placement.

Redirects sunlight without the heat.
I absolutely love my sun tube. the difference it makes in my living room is incredible. my living room being so dark (because i have tons of trees on my lot plus a covered patio) was one of the things i really hated about my house, but not any more! if you have a dark room, you should consider getting one of these.

The finished product is awesome! The white light fills the kitchen, much better than the yellowish light that was coming from the old Solar Tube. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Solartube Home if you need these types of services!
