Frequently Asked Questions About VELUX Sun Tunnel Installation in Wigan
Do sun tunnels work on cloudy days in Wigan?
Sun tunnels in Wigan still provide useful light on overcast days, although output is highest in direct sun. They work well in the conditions typical of the area.
Which rooms can have a sun tunnel in Wigan?
Sun tunnels are ideal for hallways, bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms in Wigan. Any room with roof access above can benefit from one.
Do sun tunnels need planning permission in Wigan?

What is the difference between rigid and flexible sun tunnels in Wigan?
Rigid sun tunnels give the brightest light where the roof dome is almost directly above the ceiling. Flexible tunnels in Wigan are used when the route around roof timbers is not straight.
Local Wigan Considerations for Sun Tunnel Installation
We install VELUX sun tunnels in Wigan and the surrounding area to bring natural daylight into rooms with no external wall. Rigid or flexible tunnels are chosen based on the roof and ceiling route.
What happens during a sun tunnel installation in Wigan?
We choose the shortest, most efficient route to bring daylight into the room below.
- 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 installation know-how for Wigan
For Wigan properties, we choose the tunnel type and route based on the modern developments of the home, roof pitch and the conditions the dome will be exposed to.
- 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.
- Flexible tunnels are used when the route around roof timbers is not straight.
