So Why a Solatube?

Solatubes surpass all other means of bringing sunlight into the interior spaces of your home. As the owner of Room Brite, I've noticed that we don't have to convince those who have seen the effect in person. We simply provide the product. Some months ago, Elaine M. from Waco called the Solatube Premier Dealer that serviced this area for an install of some Solatubes in their new home in Waco. They contacted us, since we are Certified Installers for the Waco, Temple, Killeen area in central Texas.

Elaine and her husband have a beautiful home that they had designed themselves. But they ran into a problem faced by others building upscale homes. Getting the design and spaciousness in their Woodway home to meet their vision was challenging, but not that difficult. What they found more challenging was to position windows and configure room layouts to allow the beauty of natural sunlight to illuminate those spaces. As Elaine wrote so well in her testimonial, Solatubes dramatically improved the mood of her home by capturing the bright sunlight shining on her roof and transporting it directly into the shadows of her hallway and laundry.

The Solatube Effect is subtle and dramatic. The most dramatic effect is the ability of sunlight to bring out the brilliant reflection of the textures and colors in your paintings, woodwork, and furniture; decor that you painstakingly chose for its artistic effect on the mood of your home. Flourescent and incandescent lighting systems cannot begin to match the grandeur brought out by the Solatube Effect. And it is free, (after you pay me of course...)

And subtly, the Solatube brings the rhythm of nature and sunlight back into the home. Have we forgotten the coming of dawn, the increasing light of the early morning while sipping a coffee or tea, the shadow of a passing cloud, the darkening approach of a storm cloud, the grandeur of the return of the sun after the rain, the dimming of the approach of dusk, and the falling of night? Of course, we turn the lights on at that point. :) Unfortunately, for some of us, modernity has removed us from the subtle mental benefits of these seemingly minor details. (I know, I sound a bit philosophical. But I grew up on a farm where the rhythm of nature was an accepted part of life.)

In other places you can learn why the Solatube is the premium product in the tubular daylighting space. I will leave it to another post to muse over the wonderful benefits of installing Solatubes instead of traditional skylights.

So, until the next time, I suggest that you plan to...... Let a Little Light in! JavaJoe
