The Advantages Of Tubular Skylights In Gaining Natural Lighting
Tubular skylights are your best natural lighting solution for many different reasons. The top three reasons are: these lights offer natural light that is easier on your eyes and, because of the diffuser plates they use, this light does not create a glare on your computer or television screen. These lights are very versatile. Sun Tubes add savings into the mix for both short and long term use. Read on for more details about each of these benefits.
Most people are like yourself who are curious about what a certain product can do for you. The primary benefit from a natural lighting given by Sun Tunnel is the quality of the light. This is not a harsh, bright light that will cause you to be uncomfortable or have to squint to get through the brightest part of the day. All of these lights bounce the sunlight around the metal tubing that directs it into your home and then spreads it throughout your room with a diffuser plate. This plate lessens the intensity of the light as it enters the room. This insures that the light does not cause a glare on computer and television screens. Compare that to the glare from florescent bulbs. A few studies have indicated that florescent light at work have led to headached and induced fatigue because it disrupts the natural biorhythms of people. Also, for the ladies, squinting adds to the crow’s feet around your eyes.
Sun Tubes have a tremendous advantage when compared to other skylight types because of their versatility. A direct roof access is not necessary in order to install this type of lighting in a room. Even a closet or a shower can be improved by adding natural light. An illumination equal to that of a 1200 watt electric bulb can be achieved by using this light. No more hunting for shoes at the bottom of the closet and wishing you had more light. Have you tried putting your contacts in when there isn’t enough light to make out the contact itself? Remove your issues of glare in the bathroom mirror by setting up a suitable bright light.
Now, everyone asks themselves: ‘Will these lights save me enough money to make it worth my while to install them?’. You be the judge. To have a contractor install one new light in your home, it will cost an average of $375. A single tubular skylight costs less than $250. Once the installation is finished, you will still have that added to your electric bill. No energy bill for a skylight. That’s another $100 a year, minimum. Then there is the tax credit being offered for green energy projects. You can deduct 30% of every green product up to $1500 total. That can be as much as $75 for every tubular skylight that you install. Add that up for a total of $300 saved in one year from a single natural light.
