Since our cabin was added onto several years ago, we ended up without any external windows in the bathroom. We replaced our roof this year and decided to add a skylight to improve the lighting. In the end we went with the smaller 14" model and it works very well at illuminating our 10' x 8' bathroom. Since we re-decked the roof during the re-roof, installation of the skylight wasn't that much of a big deal and it even works on our low slope roof. The only tricky bit was pulling down the foil solar tube and attaching it to the end of the diffuser fitting, but that was about 10 mins of effort and then done. The diffuser creates a 'blue' tinted white light similar to those new car headlamps and even diffuses moonlight at night! One word of praise for Velux customer support in this project - my wife managed to put her foot through the hole in the roof deck we had cut for the skylight and punched out the diffuser in the process, breaking its mounting tabs. Velux was kind enough to send four replacement tabs at no charge so we could finish the job off. Great customer service Velux - thank you.
Pros: Easy to Install, Easy to Clean, Good Size & Fit
Cons: no 'low slope' roof option
Yes, I recommend this product.

We purchased these to install at a customer's home and were very impressed. The installation was much easier with the flexible tunnel and the customer just loves her new skylights!!
I'm now thinking about putting some of them in my own house.

Very dissapointed with the light it provides.

The product arrived without instructions or the screws, tape, etc. to complete the installtion. I had to call the manufacturer to get these. Once installed it gave very little additional light in the room. I am very dissapointed with this product
No, I do not recommend this product.

Had a roofer install it, so I am not completely sure of the ease of installation. He said the only problem he had was with a beam in our attic. The only thing that I am not completely happy with is that I think it is too diffused, would like to be getting more light - think the tunnel is fine, just the cover. The glass looks great in the ceiling, but not enough light comes through to please me.
Yes, I recommend this product.

We installed this product through professional installer in our kitchen assuming that we will get enough sun light for the room. However, the standard frosted diffuser hardly let any light pass through and the room doesn't make any differences with the solar tube. I am disappointed with the product and the worst case is that I cannot find any other diffusers for this product to replace the frosted one.
No, I do not recommend this product.

It looks good, not enough lights in. I installed it in the living room (was a bit dark room). For a large room it is better to get 18'' or 21'' with bolging down difuser instrad of flat ones.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Review 7 for 14 in. Sun Tunnel Tubular Skylight Acrylic Dome with Pitched Flashing and Flexible Tunnel
Overall rating
Great product
,PostedJuly 23, 2011
Easy to install and does a great job of bringing in light to what was a dark area. My only complaint would be that the flexible tube bunches up where it meets the inside diffuser if the dome on the roof isn't installed directly above the diffuser.
Yes, I recommend this product.

We installed three skylights and are very happy with it. Where there was absolutely no light before, we have light now. We love it. Good purchase for the price paid.
Yes, I recommend this product.
