Local Pickering Considerations for Sun Tunnel Installation
Sun tunnel installation in Pickering is ideal for hallways, bathrooms and utility rooms in the period and rural 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 Pickering?
A sun tunnel installation in Pickering is planned around the period and rural housing found in the property and the conditions it will be exposed to. We choose rigid or flexible tubing accordingly.
- The ceiling diffuser is installed in the room below and sealed neatly.
- We check the roof covering, rafter positions and ceiling location to plan the route.
- A small roof dome is fitted on the roof and a reflective tube is routed to the ceiling.
Sun tunnel installation know-how for Pickering
Our Pickering sun tunnel surveys check the roof covering, loft space and ceiling position to choose the most efficient route.
- 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.
