Local Pontefract Considerations for Sun Tunnel Installation

Sun tunnel installation in Pontefract is ideal for hallways, bathrooms and utility rooms in the Victorian 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 Pontefract?

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

  • We choose rigid or flexible tubing based on the straightness of the route and the light level needed.
  • The work area is cleaned and the system is checked before we leave.
  • A small roof dome is fitted on the roof and a reflective tube is routed to the ceiling.

Sun tunnel options for Pontefract homes

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

  • Flexible tunnels work around obstructions in the loft, though they lose a little more light.
  • Flat or pitched roof domes are chosen to match the existing roof covering.
  • Tunnels can be 35 cm, 45 cm or 60 cm in diameter to suit the room size.

Sun tunnel installation know-how for Pontefract

Our Pontefract sun tunnel surveys check the roof covering, loft space and ceiling position to choose the most efficient route.

  • Solar-powered and electric diffusers are available for hard-to-reach rooms.
  • Longer tunnel runs and multiple bends reduce light output, so we design the shortest practical route.
  • Flexible tunnels are used when the route around roof timbers is not straight.
  • We finish the ceiling diffuser and roof dome neatly to match the room and roof covering.
