Default Solar Tubes

We live in an At Ease cottage and are thinking about getting solar tubes installed. The Solatube guys on 441, advertise buy one save $100, buy 2 save $250 buy 3 save $450 but they do not list the price of a tube in their ad. Has anyone used these guys, and/or what is the approximate cost per tube? I understand more work is invovled with different home styles, that's why I mentioned our house design. Thanks.

The Solar Guys just installed two in my Iris last week. I'd rather not give estimates, but I assure you, the addition is well worth it. If you search Solar lights (my post) you will see many posts on the subject.

I have three solar tubes and they are worth every penny I spent to get them. You can call The Solar Guys and they'll tell you exactly what they cost. If you live in Sumter County, and with the type of home you have, you must, you'll be required to get a permit. The Solar Guys will do that for you, but there is a charge. Sometimes they have specials that will cover the cost of the county required permit. There are a couple of sizes for tubes and prices are different for both. Check out what's available on their web page.
I can't tell you costs because I had mine installed a few years ago and prices are most likely different now.

I had 3 solar tubes put in our villa a few years ago and am sure prices have changed. I love them and can tell you Solar Guys did a great job with the install. I live in Sumter County and did have to pay for the permit.

We're moving into an At Ease in Tamarind Grove at the end of June. We've been in touch with The Solar Guys and are having them install 3 solar tubes (kitchen, laundry room, and master closer) and 2 solar attic fans. Total cost, I think is around $2800.
