Site Prep and Placement

We begin by entering the attic to evaluate your home's structure, check rafter spacing, and mark precise points where the tunnel will connect through the ceiling and roof for optimal light flow.

System Assembly and Sealing

Outside, we cut a clean opening in the roof and install the top collar, lens, and flashing to form the upper part of the tunnel. Every component is carefully sealed to prevent leaks and protect against weather.

Interior Finish and Final Touches

Back inside, we cut the ceiling opening, connect the reflective tunnel sections, and install the diffuser and trim ring. This final step ensures a seamless, polished appearance and immediate daylighting results. Once complete, your space will be brighter and more energy-efficient, often in less than two hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a sun tunnel, and how does it work?

A sun tunnel is a daylighting system that captures sunlight from your roof and channels it through a highly reflective tube into your home. It's designed to brighten interior spaces like hallways, bathrooms, closets, and laundry rooms where traditional windows or skylights aren't practical.

Where in my home can a sun tunnel be installed?

Sun tunnels are ideal for areas that lack direct access to exterior walls or natural light, such as hallways, interior bathrooms, stairwells, and walk-in closets. As long as there's roof access above the room, a sun tunnel can usually be installed.

How much light does a sun tunnel provide?

While the exact brightness depends on the tunnel length and roof exposure, sun tunnels provide ample natural daylight, often enough to eliminate the need for electric lighting during the day. The light is soft, diffused, and evenly distributed throughout the space.

Do sun tunnels require maintenance?

VELUX Sun Tunnels are designed to be low-maintenance. The sealed tubing and weather-tight components help keep dust, debris, and moisture out. Occasionally, you may want to clean the interior diffuser, but otherwise, the system requires little upkeep.
