Overview

Natural Light Tubular Skylights

A Smart, Energy Efficient Custom Upgrade

Adding free sunlight into a workplace has psychological, physiological and cost saving benefits. Workers are much happier under the sun and the reduction of electric lighting saves the company money. Whether your next project is a new construction or a remodel, you should consider adding Natural Light Tubular Skylights to greatly improve the efficiency of the building and of its workers. We offer a model for all applications: standard sheet rock ceilings, warehouse applications and drop ceiling grid systems.

Our innovative design produces 98% light reflectivity while allowing virtually no heat/cold transfer from the outside environment. Additionally, Natural Light tubular skylights greatly reduce energy consumption in three significant ways:

  • Less energy used to power fluorescent & incandescent lighting
  • Less energy required to counter artificial lighting heat
  • Less energy used by HVAC, due to shortened run times

Hurricane Tested & Approved

Natural Light Tubular Skylights under went numerous tests by the Hurricane Test Laboratory, Inc. in Riviera Beach, Florida and successfully passed their tests to earn the “hurricane approved” rating (HTL01097). Testing included a missile impact test where lumber was shot at a high speed directly at the skylight dome. The dome sustained no damage.
