(HealthNewsDigest.com)-Winter may be on its way, along with fewer daylight hours, but you can still make the most of natural sunlight with the help of a skylight.
A good skylight can brighten a room much better than a light- bulb. What’s more, certain tubular skylights have been “Green Approved” by the NAHB (National Association of Home Builders) Research Center under the National Green Building Standard toward green certification of a home. The NAHB Research Center is a full-service product commercialization company that strives to make housing more durable and affordable. Companies that have earned the Green Approved mark are helping mainstream builders make the right choices when they design and build Green Certified homes.
A skylight can be easy for homeowners and contractors to install. ODL, Inc. offers a two-piece installation kit that makes installing the skylight simple because the bottom adjustable tube overlaps the top adjustable tube. Homeowners and contractors have fewer product pieces to work with, which is especially helpful in attic installations.
The NAHB “Green Approved” 10- and 14-inch Energy Star−qualified skylights from ODL, Inc. feature a patented Solar Lens Dome, which increases light through the tube. The dome is designed to make the most of available sunlight even during low-light hours. During full mid-day sun, a 10-inch tubular skylight illuminates up to 150 square feet of space with the light of about three 100-watt light- bulbs. The 14-inch tubular skylight is designed to illuminate up to 300 square feet, which is equal to about five 100-watt light-bulbs.
ODL now offers a dimmer for its popular Energy Star®−qualified tubular skylight, giving consumers the ability to control the amount of light entering a room through their tubular skylight. The Solar Powered Dimmer is the first in the industry to not require hard wiring, using solar power instead, resulting in quicker and less expensive installation than competitive products.
