Sun tunnel options for Kingston upon Thames homes

The right sun tunnel depends on the roof construction, the distance to the ceiling and the room you want to light.

  • Rigid sun tunnels give the brightest light where the roof dome is almost directly above the ceiling.
  • Tunnels can be 35 cm, 45 cm or 60 cm in diameter to suit the room size.
  • Flexible tunnels work around obstructions in the loft, though they lose a little more light.
