Our tubular skylights will work for any room. Some rooms require more light than others so below is a general guideline when purchasing a tubular skylight.

If you are looking to add natural light to your kitchen, living room, master bedroom, garages, family rooms, or office, we suggest you install a 13'' tubular skylight which has an approx coverage area of 250 square feet.

When installing a tubular skylight, the first place if possible would be to install it on the southwest side of the house.
