Local Cambridge Considerations for Sun Tunnel Installation
Sun tunnel installation in Cambridge is ideal for hallways, bathrooms and utility rooms in the modern developments typical of local homes. We choose the right tunnel type for the roof and ceiling position.
What happens during a sun tunnel installation in Cambridge?
For Cambridge homes, we survey the roof covering, rafter positions and ceiling before fitting the roof dome, reflective tube and ceiling diffuser.
- A small roof dome is fitted on the roof and a reflective tube is routed to the ceiling.
- The work area is cleaned and the system is checked before we leave.
- We check the roof covering, rafter positions and ceiling location to plan the route.
Sun tunnel installation know-how for Cambridge
In Cambridge, the choice between rigid and flexible sun tunnels depends on the distance and direction between the roof dome and the ceiling diffuser.
- Longer tunnel runs and multiple bends reduce light output, so we design the shortest practical route.
- Solar-powered and electric diffusers are available for hard-to-reach rooms.
- Rigid sun tunnels are the most efficient option when the roof dome is almost directly above the ceiling.
- Flexible tunnels are used when the route around roof timbers is not straight.
