About
Throughout history, people have sought ways to brighten the interiors of the places where they live and work. And no light source is more perfect than the sun for providing light. It’s naturally bright, free, and contrary to a light bulb, never burns out. Harnessing and transferring that perfect light indoors is the foundation of Solatube International, Inc., and it’s what inspired us to create the very first Solatube Daylighting System more than three decades ago.
Unlike traditional skylights, our products capture the sun’s light and deliver it to indoor spaces where natural light was previously unheard of, like interior rooms, and rooms on lower floors. Only Solatube Daylighting Systems use breakthrough technology to transform virtually any room in only two hours—without the costs, leaks, and hassles associated with traditional skylights.
Using advanced optics and breakthrough delivery technologies, our early designs earned accolades from industry experts and customers alike for their high performance and engineered simplicity. Since then, we’ve continued to lead the daylighting industry with optical improvements and decorative enhancements that enable our products to capture and transfer even more daylight into interiors.
We’ve expanded our offerings to include ventilation products for your entire home. These ventilation products include solar attic fans, whole-house fans, and garage fans. These products use advanced technologies to drive out heat, moisture, and unhealthy air from your attic that can damage your home and drive up energy costs.
Today, more than two million people have improved their homes with Solatube products, and millions more have enjoyed the benefits at department stores, schools, hotels, hospitals, grocery stores, offices, and athletic facilities. Well-known Fortune 500 brands have enhanced their customers’ experiences while reducing their corporate energy costs by incorporating our products into their stores.
When it comes to your home or workplace, installing a Solatube Daylighting System or our ventilation products is one of the easiest, quickest, and most affordable ways to brighten and add comfort to your interior spaces. And because most of our systems operate using solar energy, they reduce your reliance on electricity, lessen the impact on the environment, and cost little to nothing to operate. And we think that’s the brightest idea yet.
