Highest Light Performance Guarantee
Capture, transfer, and deliver beautiful natural light
Solatube daylighting technology manages every stage of the light path, capturing sunlight at the rooftop, transferring it through highly reflective tubing, and delivering beautifully diffused natural light through the decorative ceiling fixtures.
Capture Zone
Raybender® 3000 technology redirects low-angle morning, evening, and winter sunlight into the system, while the LightTracker® reflector helps optimize light capture throughout the day.
Transfer Zone
Spectralight® Infinity tubing uses a highly reflective interior surface to move daylight through straight or angled tube runs while preserving its brightness and natural appearance.
Deliver Zone
The ceiling fixture and optical lenses diffuse daylight into the room while optional controls let you adapt the system for comfort and nighttime use.
Beautiful natural light
Brighten spaces throughout the home
The 160DS daylighting system is designed for bathrooms, laundry rooms, closets, hallways, and other smaller spaces where daylight is limited.

I'm very happy with my Solar Tube with air vent.
The 10" tube brightens the bathroom and hallway as hoped. The air vent is so quiet compared to the 1964 fan removed!
-
Great work. We are very happy with the results.
That living area was always a bit dark. Now I am always thinking that I need to turn a few lights out!
-
When we bought this house in 2018, we got a Solatube installed in our dark kitchen.
It brightened the kitchen so much that we decided to get more. Today, we finally got 2 NEW SolaTubes installed, one (10) in our Dark Hallways in the center of the house and the other (12) in the dark Living Area (Baseball/Craft room). Its an Amazing Transformation! We highly recommend Solatube Home products!

We had 3 Solatubes installed in our home. The rooms where the Solatube installed are now 100 percent brighter.

Very impressed with the transformation! We updated 5 existing Solar Tubes and added a new one. We added solar night lights and upgraded lenses. I love the night lights which turn out to be a great safety feature as well. Thank you so much!
