Solar-Powered Fresh Breeze Skylight · 2 ft. × 2 ft.
Invite daylight and a fresh breeze into your home.
Brighten kitchens, bathrooms, and living spaces with natural light, then open your skylight from the included remote when you want outdoor air.
The Solatube HSE Fresh Breeze Skylight uses solar power to charge its battery and operate the opening mechanism. Insulated dual-pane glass and integrated thermal barriers help maintain indoor comfort when closed.
- Solar-powered operation
- Remote control included
- Automatic rain sensor
Plan your fit: 2 ft. × 2 ft. is the nominal product size. Confirm actual curb dimensions, roof slope, and installation requirements before ordering. Choose Clear or SoftLight™ Glass in the options above.
Light and ventilation together
A brighter room. A breath of fresh air.
Enjoy daylight throughout the day and open the skylight when outdoor conditions suit your home.
Natural daylight
Bring light from above into your living spaces and reduce the need for electric lighting during the day.
Fresh-air ventilation
Open the skylight to provide a path for warm, stale indoor air to escape when replacement air is available.
Solar-powered control
The integrated solar panel charges the battery for remote-controlled operation without household electrical wiring.
Automatic rain response
A built-in rain sensor initiates closing when rain is detected.
Insulated safety glass
Argon-filled dual-pane glazing combines tempered outer glass with laminated inner glass. Integrated thermal barriers help limit heat transfer.
UV protection
Low-E glass blocks 99% of harmful UV light, helping protect furnishings and interior finishes.
Powered by sunlight
Open, close, and enjoy from below
- Capture solar energy. The panel charges the skylight's battery.
- Choose your opening. Use the remote to operate the motor and let fresh air through the screened opening.
- Respond to rain. The sensor signals the skylight to close when rain is detected.
The solar system operates the skylight mechanism; it does not power a ventilation fan. Airflow depends on weather, the opening, and other air paths through the home.
Choose how daylight enters
A clear sky view or a softer glow
Select your preferred glass type using the product options above.
Clear Glass
Enjoy natural daylight with a view through the glass to the sky. A good choice when the outdoor view is part of the room's appeal.
SoftLight™ Glass
Diffuse incoming daylight to reduce glare and spread light more evenly. A good choice when a soft, luminous ceiling opening matters more than a clear sky view.
Glass examples show both HSE skylight styles. This listing is for the solar-powered operable model.
Optional daylight control
Adjust the light as your day changes
A Performance Skylight Shade adds another way to manage daylight. Its pleated polyester fabric sits in a powder-coated aluminum frame for a coordinated interior finish.
- Adjust by hand when within reach
- Optional telescoping pole extends up to 16 feet
- Standard and custom shade sizes available
Shade and extension pole are optional purchases. Confirm shade sizing and clearance for your skylight and interior shaft before ordering.
Measure before ordering
Match the skylight to your roof curb
For a replacement, measure the existing curb. For a new opening, coordinate framing, curb, flashing, and interior finishes with your installer.
Identify the size
This listing is the nominal 2 ft. × 2 ft. Fresh Breeze operable skylight. Nominal size is not a roof-opening measurement.
Measure the curb
Record both outside curb dimensions and the interior opening. Confirm the unit and operable-base fit before ordering.
Check the installation
Verify roof slope, curb condition, waterproofing, solar exposure, and opening clearance against the installation guide.

Natural is always the best option
Our neighbours have a really big house which blocks out all sunlight so we figured if we wanted light we'd have to go the skylight route. But I kept hearing horror stories about them leaking etc and that these were a better alternative. So far so good. We have two and they are surprisingly effective at bringing in a lot more light. We could barely read in our living room before and now it's like the lights are on for hours a day.
