I have had these sun tunnels for 9 years; I love the sun in my dark kitchen and hallway, but they are a pain to take apart, clean, and put back together! Bugs gather inside the tunnels, visible from below, and unsightly. Taking the frame off (twisting it) and replacing it is a nightmare. The design is ridiculous. There must be a better way to take these apart and replace (magnets, perhaps?) I need advice on how to update these or replace them. I would not recommend them as they are. I wou...

Hello. I have a sun tunnel skylight. It is lovely during the day, but at night I wish it was very dark. How could I and what could I cover this device with and during the day take it down? Thank you.

Perfect for natural light in dark spaces
We purchased 3 of these solar tubes years ago and never have leaked.

Not cold weather friendly
Installed last March and have enjoyed it right above my easy chair. This week we had a cold snap that got down to 25° 3 nights in a row. I happened to look up and saw a crack thru the glass and moisture all over inside. Very upset.

Highly Recommend
Yes. Had one installed in my foyer coming in from the garage. An area with very little windows. Unreal how much light it gives off.

Not enough light
I had a light tube put in my living room a little over a month ago and I’m truly disappointed in the amount of light that comes in. I called the roofing company back and asked if I could get some kind of a different light screen and they told me that was the only one they carried. Then I get onto this website and see there are six different options. Can someone on here tell me which one gives the most light in the room?

Best purchase we’ve ever made.
We bought this 4 years ago for a bathroom without a window. It’s the best purchase we’ve ever made. When someone goes in the bathroom they are always looking for the switch to turn the ‘light’ off.

Wow
The upper deck was super dark. Now the natural light has made a huge difference. Wow

Let the sun shine in!
We have a small ranch home that was very dark inside. We bought our first Sun tunnel a year ago for the small living room. We loved it so much that we recently installed the second sun tunnel in the kitchen. To say we are wowed is an understatement. We love them!
