Our living room was very dark!
to its location in our duplex, but now it's brighten up nicely and beautifully after getting Solatube. We regret we haven't done this earlier! Thank you so much!
-
So much brighter now!
Highly recommend Solatube! I had dark areas in my bathrooms, hallway, and living room, and wanted more light. I found Solatube, I'm thrilled with the results--it brightened the rooms exactly as I hoped.
-
It’s a total upgrade.
Our living room was so dark and these solar yes brought in sunshine and brightness. This company was easy to work with, reliable and helpful. Though the light doesn’t appear 100% like daylight compared to natural light, it’s brought in much more light to our room. Better on sunny days but overall, very happy with not living in darkness anymore!

We had a great experience
Solatube.Love not having to turn on the hallway lights anymore! Great experience and a fantastic result!
-
We'd recommend them!
We used Solatube for our condo association skylights (5 total). We decided to use this company thanks to the reasonable quote, product quality, and skylight warranty.
-
So in love with my Solatube skylights! Installed 1 in each of my bathrooms that don't have a window or any natural light and these are amazing!
-
These lights are amazing. We are very happy we decided to have them installed.
-
I am very pleased with my Solatube.
I have very dreary north facing living and family rooms plus our kitchen. I constantly had the lights on to brighten up the rooms. I am very pleased with how everything turned out. Two of the 3 sets have solar night lights which are great!! I wake up each morning thinking the lights are on.
-
A great light solution!
Solatube is the best home project I’ve done since I moved into my house 9 years ago! My kitchen was so dark that I would have to turn on the lights during the day. When I found about solar tunnels, I was originally going to buy a knockoff from home depot. I am already thinking about where I could put my next Solatube.
