Sun tunnel options for St Helens homes

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

  • Flat or pitched roof domes are chosen to match the existing roof covering.
  • Electric and solar-powered diffusers can add a small light boost for very dark rooms.
  • Flexible tunnels work around obstructions in the loft, though they lose a little more light.
