Traditionally, natural lighting in a house used to only enter from windows and doors. This creates many areas in the house dark and uninviting. However, with skylights and sun tunnels, natural lighting can be delivered to almost any area in the house, making even the darkest and most isolated spaces warm and welcoming.
Benefits of Skylights
The installation of skylights provides a sustainable light source option that illuminates areas without traditional windows or the use of light bulbs. There are many benefits to installing skylights on your roof, including the following:
- They provide natural lighting to your home, with up to twice the amount of daylight for skylights when compared to vertical windows. Natural light is known to improve physical and mental health and increased productivity. You also get a more visually appealing lighting.
- You save on energy costs as solar heating comes with sunlight.
- Improves the interior aesthetics and/or enhance the design architectures of our home, which improved the overall value of your property.
