Natural Light Source
Every shed should have natural sunlight coming in to illuminate the space and make it a better work environment.
Great natural light source — solar tube for sheds with shingled roofs!
The Solar LightBlaster is a low profile tubular skylight (solar tube or sun tunnel) that is a great source of natural sunlight into your dark shed. This version is for sheds with asphalt shingled roofs. Save electricity and let the sun shine and illuminate your shed during the daylight hours.
How easy is this to install? A Solar LightBlaster tubular skylight is a very simple install. It comes with a template to help you cut the circular hole in your shed's roof. Then just use the screws included to attach it up under your shingles on the top edge and down over the top of the shingles below. It comes in three parts and they just fit together unbelievably easily.
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.
