Natural Light Source
Every shed should have natural sunlight coming in to illuminate the space and make it a better work environment.
The Solar LightBlaster for Flat Roofs is a low profile tubular skylight that will work on flat roofs of houses, sheds and garages. Solar tubes for sheds, tiny homes, garages, and utility trailers are growing in popularity.
NOTE: Depending on the thickness of your roof, you may need to order one of our extension tubes if your flat roof decking is more than ½"–¾" in thickness.
It is also an excellent application for RVs and Utility Trailers, but please call us to discuss your specific application. This is a specialty item and we'd like to talk through your project first so you know exactly what you are ordering and how you'll need to modify it for installation. Call us at 480-747-7097.
Solar Tubes vs Traditional Skylights
Solar tubes, or tubular skylights, are quite innovative in their design and provide a very good source of daylighting in your shed. They maximize the amount of sunlight they collect, while filtering out the heat and glare that traditional skylights produce.

Economical
Cost savings in both the unit and also in the installation.
More expensive for the unit as well as an extensive installation requirement.
Energy Efficiency

Some skylights provide ventilation by opening. The fixed ones can be a source of heat gain driving up the cost of air conditioning and heat loss increasing winter heating bills.
Attractiveness

Quality of Light
Due to the design of the interior diffuser, the indirect light output is much more than you'd expect throughout the day. It is also a very natural light without color distortion. Doesn't fade your valuables.
Depending on the quality of the dome, the light can be discolored throwing a yellowish or grayish tone. Also, due to its design, the light's path changes with the sun and can be quite harsh at times during the day. May lead to discoloring items in its path over time.
