Local Chesterfield Considerations for Sun Tunnel Installation
We fit rigid and flexible VELUX sun tunnels across Chesterfield and the Derbyshire 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 Chesterfield?
We choose the shortest, most efficient route to bring daylight into the room below.
- The ceiling diffuser is installed in the room below and sealed neatly.
- 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 choose rigid or flexible tubing based on the straightness of the route and the light level needed.
Sun tunnel installation know-how for Chesterfield
In Chesterfield, the choice between rigid and flexible sun tunnels depends on the distance and direction between the roof dome and the ceiling diffuser.
- Rigid sun tunnels are the most efficient option when the roof dome is almost directly above the ceiling.
- Solar-powered and electric diffusers are available for hard-to-reach rooms.
- 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.
