Due to the nature of skylights, they are not always the ideal solution when a homeowner is looking to increase natural light into their homes. Skylights, while being a great source of light, can only be installed in locations where there is no attic space. They are also known for not being entirely energy efficient, often bringing in the cold or heat from outside along with the natural light.

Light tunnels have gained immense popularity as an alternative to skylights. Light tunnels are a great solution to distribute light through a tunnel into a living space. With the flexibility of location installation, light tunnels can be used in bathrooms, hallways, closets or anywhere needed since they are able to transport daylight from the exterior of the home, through an attic space, into the living area.
