I've read in other threads that installing a solar tube voids the warranty for the roof shingles - is that true?

Do Solar Panels Void Your Roof Warranty?

That article is about solar panels, not solar tubes. I don't think installing a solar tube would void your entire roof warranty.

I agree.................but the purpose of the link was the advice of checking with the company issuing the warranty, or roof installer rather than taking advice from ToTV.

Good idea. But, the real answer is to read the warranty. If the written warranty document doesn't say that a solar tube or other penetration will void it, then it really doesn't matter what the roof installer or manufacturer tells you.

That will be for the 11 anal Villagers who have their warranty documents.

We have a 14 “ in kitchen and a 8 “ in our laundry area both have solar night lights. I love them. The solars guys did the work. It was fast efficient and reasonably price. I was thinking I wanted one more in the garage.
