Frequently Asked Questions About VELUX Sun Tunnel Installation in Godalming

Do sun tunnels work on cloudy days in Godalming?

Sun tunnels in Godalming still provide useful light on overcast days, although output is highest in direct sun. They work well in the conditions typical of the area.

Do sun tunnels need planning permission in Godalming?

VELUX sun tunnels in Godalming usually fall within permitted development and do not need planning permission. We can advise if your property is listed or in a conservation area near Godalming Parish Church, Winkworth Arboretum, River Wey.

What is the difference between rigid and flexible sun tunnels in Godalming?

Rigid sun tunnels give the brightest light where the roof dome is almost directly above the ceiling. Flexible tunnels in Godalming are used when the route around roof timbers is not straight.

Which rooms can have a sun tunnel in Godalming?

Sun tunnels are ideal for hallways, bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms in Godalming. Any room with roof access above can benefit from one.

Local Godalming Considerations for Sun Tunnel Installation

Sun tunnel installation in Godalming is ideal for hallways, bathrooms and utility rooms in the Victorian and Edwardian housing typical of local homes. We choose the right tunnel type for the roof and ceiling position.

What happens during a sun tunnel installation in Godalming?

For Godalming homes, we survey the roof covering, rafter positions and ceiling before fitting the roof dome, reflective tube and ceiling diffuser.

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

Sun tunnel options for Godalming homes

For Godalming homes, we choose between rigid and flexible sun tunnels based on the Victorian and Edwardian housing of the home, roof pitch and the distance between the dome and ceiling diffuser.

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

Sun tunnel installation know-how for Godalming

In Godalming, 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.
  • We finish the ceiling diffuser and roof dome neatly to match the room and roof covering.
  • Rigid sun tunnels are the most efficient option when the roof dome is almost directly above the ceiling.
