Solar tubes
We have an Iris in Buttonwood. Because the lanai is an extension of the living room area, the living room doesn't get much sunlight. Yes, this can be a good thing. Less furniture fade from sun, cooler temps etc. But we would like to have the room a little more sunny. It appears solar tubes are the way to go. Does anyone have solar tubes in living room of an Iris? If so, is it possible to stop over within the next week or so to check it out. I don't want to waste my $$$ if they don't do the trick.

We just put in a 14" Solar tube in our Jasmine, which was also a little dark. The product is quite amazing and changed the room completely. Do not know about an Iris and your particular layout. The Solar people indicate there is no heat or uv rays from the tube, do not understand how that is but accept that it is accurate. The price was reasonable and was done within 1 1/2 hours was no mess. |

Jasmine is the same as the Wisteria except Jasmine is stucco. Lily is the vinyl of the Iris.

Actually the Lilac is the wood framed version of the Iris. The Lily is very similar to the Iris. And, for your purpose, the living, kitchen and lanai areas are the same as the Iris. Maybe someone with a Lily has installed a Solar Tube in the living room.

We are also interested in the solar tubes and found two vendors at the art fair yesterday in SS. I believe that it is also going on today. Hope this helps!

The Solar Guys do a pretty good job, no mess, etc., but I their prices seem a little high. Anybody find a good company that will put in a 12" lite for less than $459?

All solar tubes are not made equally. Do your homework and do not jump at the lowest price. Find out how much light is actually refracted into your space.
We used the Solar Guys are are highly pleased. However, do make sure they scoot the loose insulation back around the area where the tube was installed. They move it aside during installation, and sometimes forget to move it back. |
