Benefits of a Skylight or Sun Tunnel

Adding natural light to your home

Natural light is known to improve mood and even help increase performance in workplaces. Your property can greatly benefit from natural lighting if your home is typically more dim or surrounded by shade that doesn’t allow light to come in through your windows.

Better Ventilation

Installing a motorized skylight lets you open up the glass covering and let in fresh air. The cross ventilation helps clear up stuffy rooms, cool down your living space, and help you breathe easier.

Saving on energy costs

When natural light enters the room, there’s no need to turn on the lights. Your home will be lit at all hours of the day from your windows and from above. Cross ventilation also lets you turn off that AC during cooler days and the direct sunlight will keep you warm during winter.

Add resale value

Skylights and sun tunnels are considered cosmetic changes to a home. When cosmetic changes are made, it can add equity to your home and up the resale value. Skylights are especially valuable because it gives any room an attractive and calming atmosphere.

Make a room seem bigger

Just like adding mirrors can make a room feel bigger, so can skylights! It also gives you a wonderful view of the starry sky at night.

Differences Between a Skylight and Sun Tunnel

Skylights are windows set into the roof of your home. They typically look like regular windows with trimming and the ability to open and close them. Sun Tunnels, also called Solar Tubes, are domes installed in the home’s roof that catch sunlight and reflect it down a tunnel before being diffused into your home. They’re typically much smaller than skylights and aren’t as much of a statement on the home as skylights.
