Do sun tunnels work on cloudy days in Chester-le-Street?
Sun tunnels in Chester-le-Street still provide useful light on overcast days, although output is highest in direct sun. They work well in the conditions typical of the area.

What is the difference between rigid and flexible sun tunnels in Chester-le-Street?

Sun tunnel installation know-how for Chester-le-Street
Sun tunnel performance in Chester-le-Street depends on keeping the route as short and straight as possible. We plan this during the initial survey for every property.
- Rigid sun tunnels are the most efficient option when the roof dome is almost directly above the ceiling.
- Longer tunnel runs and multiple bends reduce light output, so we design the shortest practical route.
- Flexible tunnels are used when the route around roof timbers is not straight.
