Local Bishop's Stortford Considerations for Sun Tunnel Installation

We fit rigid and flexible VELUX sun tunnels across Bishop's Stortford and the Hertfordshire area. The right choice depends on the roof pitch, loft space and the distance to the ceiling diffuser.

What happens during a sun tunnel installation in Bishop's Stortford?

A sun tunnel installation in Bishop's Stortford is planned around the modern developments found in the property and the conditions it will be exposed to. We choose rigid or flexible tubing accordingly.

  • We check the roof covering, rafter positions and ceiling location to plan the route.
  • The work area is cleaned and the system is checked before we leave.
  • We choose rigid or flexible tubing based on the straightness of the route and the light level needed.
  • The ceiling diffuser is installed in the room below and sealed neatly.

Sun tunnel options for Bishop's Stortford homes

Sun tunnels in Bishop's Stortford can be 35 cm, 45 cm or 60 cm in diameter, with optional electric or solar diffusers for very dark rooms.

  • Rigid sun tunnels give the brightest light where the roof dome is almost directly above the ceiling.
  • Electric and solar-powered diffusers can add a small light boost for very dark rooms.
  • Flexible tunnels work around obstructions in the loft, though they lose a little more light.

Sun tunnel installation know-how for Bishop's Stortford

For Bishop's Stortford properties, we choose the tunnel type and route based on the modern developments of the home, roof pitch and the conditions the dome will be exposed to.

  • We finish the ceiling diffuser and roof dome neatly to match the room and roof covering.
  • Flexible tunnels are used when the route around roof timbers is not straight.
  • Longer tunnel runs and multiple bends reduce light output, so we design the shortest practical route.
