The
Solatube Advantage
Solatube’s
revolutionary,
award-winning
skylights set
the standard.
No others work
as brilliantly,
efficiently,
or reliably.
Our dedication
to the utmost
quality, design
and manufacturing
makes the difference.
- Light
Intercepting
Transfer
Device (LITD®)
increases
the surface
area available
to intercept
directional
sunlight
not in the
direct path
of the tube
opening,
then transfers
the light
down the
tubing.
The result
is increased
light input
and increased
light output.
- Raybender®
Technology
intercepts
light that
is in the
direct path
and redirects
it down
the tube
at a steeper
angle so
less light
is lost
in transfer
absorption.
- Spectralight®
Infinity
proprietary
super-reflective
tubing provides
maximum
light transfer.
- Seamless
Flashings
are fabricated
as a single,
seamless
piece to
ensure leak
proof performance.

Details
- Quick
and Easy
Installation
without
structural
reframing,
mess, or
hassle.
New preassembled
kits make
installation
even faster
and easier.
- Compact
and Adjustable
Tubing
fits between
roof rafters
and around
attic obstructions.
Each Solatube
kit features
two standard
angle adapters
to allow
placement
virtually
anywhere.
- Energy-Efficient,
sealed design
works like
a dual glazed
window minimizing
heat loss
or gain
between
interior
and outdoor
environments.
- Excellent
Color Rendition
makes rooms
and their
contents
appear in
their true
color. Solatube’s
Color Rendering
Index is
approximately
100.
- Choice
of Diffuser
Technologies
designed
to be highly
effective
at diffusing
the bright
light transferred
through
the tubing.

To
determine an initial
estimate of Solatube
products required
to daylight a space,
use the relative light
output specifications
for the Solatube products
as compared to the
light output of the
electrical lighting
fixtures used in the
space being daylit.
