Bristolite, a daylighing system specialist located in Santa Ana, California sheds new light on the growing concept of daylighting with skylight design, and tubular skylights. Smaller spaces can benefit from the advantages of aylighting by installing tubular skylights. These skylights are the answer to getting natural daylight into small offices or homes. Each tubular skylight can illuminate between 75-100 square feet of space. What is a tubular skylight? Most people have seen regular skylights. They are windows that are mounted into a roof or ceiling, and they bring in all of that wonderful natural light that the sun has to offer while keeping the heat outside. Tubular skylights offer these very same advantages, but they have a completely different design. Tubular skylights allow the light to be directed to a specific area. The portion of the tubular skylight that is installed into the roof of a building is called the collector. It lives up to its name by collecting the valuable natural light. From there that light is guided through a reflective tube until it reaches the diffuser at the bottom where the light then illuminates a room or office. The effects of this type of skylight can be dramatic. Not only can it help to keep electrical costs to a minimum, but the natural sunlight can have a huge positive effect on the human spirit. Keep bright natural light in on those cold Winter days, and keep those Winter blues somewhere else. Natural sunlight can also keep depression away as well. Tests have also proven that the addition of natural sunlight from tubular skylights can help increase production. People work more efficiently when they are happy. Keeping plenty of natural sunlight in while at the very same time, keeping all of the heat or cold out can make people happier. One of the largest benefits that these types of skylights have is saving power. Millions of dollars in electricity can be saved each and every day if businesses and residential home owners turned to tubular skylights. Keeping energy costs low is always a top priority for any business, but residential homeowners can get this huge benefit as well. Not only do tubular skylights save on individual power costs and consumption, but they also help the entire planet by creating a greener more natural environment. The less electricity that is used, the more resources the entire planet will have. People came out of the cave millions of years ago, and there is no reason to continue to live in a dark cave like environment. Tubular skylights can shed some natural light on things, and make any space a lot brighter.
