We initially ordered a domed solatube skylight
but due to some unexpected construction issues with our cabin roof, needed a new tube from Solatube, it was the best decision for us. thank you solatube for this product
-
No one couldve ever made me believe
that a solar tube would lighten my house as much as it did absolutely amazed.
-
These Solatubes are truly transformative!
We bought a house that had the master bedroom in a converted garage and it was so dark. A 14 inch Solatube was installed and the room is so full of light now
-
I am really happy with our results
My living area is really living!
-
The whole process with Solatube was amazing!
My house is so much brighter now
-
Solatube its a great option for interior spaces.
I have two interior restrooms and kitchen. Solatube team did a great job. Highly recommend.
-
We love our new Solatube.
The natural light in our dark kitchen is a game changer and the night light is pretty cool too!
-
I needed to add extra light to a very dark laundry room and hallway and Solatube was the perfect solution.
The Solatubes anre exactly what I wanted for these two dark spaces.
-
We had a large, 4x4 cracked skylight that required replacement
so we changed it to a new Solatube tubular skylight within a day, significantly enhancing the rooms brightness. I highly recommend Solatube.
-
Three of my bathrooms have no windows
My house is quite complicated with double roofing, they managed to finish all 5 of the installations including a dark hallway and walk in closet within two days. I'm happy with the work and really nice customer services. Since then, we don't need to turn on lights at home during daytime. It saves electricity. At night, it has dim light too, which is nice at night if you need to use bathrooms as well. Definitely worth every penny. I high recommended Solatube Home.
-
The solar tubes were something I wanted for a few years
The tubes have brightened up the house so much more than I could have imagined. This also brightened my mood. Don’t hesitate to give them a call.
-
I finally got one and it didn’t disappoint!
I have been wanting to get a solatube for many years now.
-
Really brightens my day.
It does bring in a good amount of light, which is nice. Will recommend to my friends.
-
I highly recommend Solartube to bring light into your building
-
I purchased a 14 inch Solatube for my living room and from my internet searches of reviews, this brand is the best. I couldn’t be happier with the “teardrop” model and the solar dimmer.
-
We had two solar tubes installed 100 percent Happy .Our home is so bright now it looks so pleasantly different . I can have more plants we just can't say enough
-
Our home looks fantastic after they were installed. Very happy with our purchase.
-
Great experience working with the entire SolaTube team, We love our new SolaTube and the natural light that we now have in our hallway!
-
We just had 5 Solatube's put in our house, and I can honestly say it was the best investment money can buy. What a difference it made in the look and feel of the house--including at night--the ambient light is like a night light.
-
Second time around with Solatube and I am a huge fan! Absolutely transforms any dark space in your home. The company is so easy to work with. ll you're left with is a bright and beautiful home. Love them so much, I am getting a fifth one installed.
