We had a 14 in.² Solatube
it has added a tremendous amount of light to the area and we are very pleased. We were so happy with the results that we added two more a few days ago.

Highly recommended! Five Stars!
We couldn’t be any happier. Initially we got 3 Solatubes and loved the product so we went ahead and added 2 more tubes, skylights, attic fans, and a garage ventilation system. Great company, offering quality products.

It’s like a light hug!
After my Moving to Oceanside, I wanted to light up my dining area. I received the recommendation for Solatube. It was MY best choice! It came out better that expected & at first I had the feeling, I forgot to turn off the light switch, but it was my new solar tube. My utmost recommendation to chose for your needs SOLATUBE!

I could not be more happy!
Wow, my Solatube has twice the light I was expecting! I really like it and my new solar roof vent.

we were amazed how much light the Solatubes let into our dark living room.

Skylights enhance my living experience.
WOW!! What an amazing transformation of a Kitchen where I always had to have the lights on. I was totally gobsmacked when I saw the finished room. I have one from 11 years ago in the hallway and I am definitely going to get the upgrade to this new technology. Highly recommend Solatube

Real daylight
Didn't expect much, but the 14-inch Solatube is great and no heat. Best decision i've made.

They installed a 14" solar Tube with a dimmer and replaced a skylight. The opening of the skylight is smooth and easy. The dimmer closes automatically at night. It works quickly and quietly.

Great for a sustainable lifestyle.
Fantastic company, GREAT products! Solatube Solartubes which is a brand that has decorative features on the tubes themselves. It's a really cool product that looks so nice in the ceiling...not just the look of the old solartubes that are most common and boring! I chose the 14" square tubes that bring in an incredible amount of light into my kitchen. I not only saved thousands of dollars by using these vs. traditional skylights, but another great feature is that they do not let in ANY heat! Whereas, a skylight can let in a LOT of heat. I don't have enough ventilation in my kitchen to offset that type of heat so I was stoked when I discovered a way to get the light without the heat! So great product

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new Solatube! It really makes a wonderful difference in the look and feel of the space.
-
I highly recommend SOLATUBES to anyone and everyone looking to enhance there lightening in home, office, or warehouse! Thank you Solatube!

Beautiful, bright natural light in my previously dark kitchen. I used to have to turn on all the lights to clean or cook. Now it is bright and beautiful! There is even a little glow at night, due to a small solar panel.

LOVE my solatubes!! Just had the second one installed. What a huge difference! Tons of light in a previously dark master bath
