Local Kirkby Considerations for Sun Tunnel Installation

We fit rigid and flexible VELUX sun tunnels across Kirkby and the Merseyside 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 Kirkby?

A sun tunnel installation in Kirkby is planned around the modern developments found in the property and the conditions it will be exposed to. We choose rigid or flexible tubing accordingly.

  • 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 options for Kirkby homes

Sun tunnels in Kirkby can be 35 cm, 45 cm or 60 cm in diameter, with optional electric or solar diffusers for very dark rooms.

  • 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.
  • Electric and solar-powered diffusers can add a small light boost for very dark rooms.

Sun tunnel installation know-how for Kirkby

In Kirkby, 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.
  • 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.
  • Solar-powered and electric diffusers are available for hard-to-reach rooms.
