Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights Velux Skylight Specialist Sun Tunnel

Flexible Sun Tunnels

These tunnels come in handy when there are obstructions in the way of the space required for installation. These tunnels are ideal for shorter runs, help diffuse sunlight in short runs, and easily bend around attic obstructions. More Information on Sun Tunnels

Solar-Powered Skylights

This type features a solar panel that captures any available daylight — so you can open and close your skylight with the touch of a button and the power of the sun. You can also upgrade this tunnel to include voice control, automatic control, and smart home automation. More Skylight Information at Skylights of Rhode Island

Rigid Sun Tunnels

These tunnels are used when there is a straight, unobstructed path from the roof down through the ceiling. This type is excellent for long tunnel runs and has brighter white light. More Sun Tunnel Information at Skylights of Rhode Island.

Flat Roof Skylights

This type features curved glass allowing water to disperse while also transforming and improving virtually any space of your home with daylight. More Skylight Information

Why Homeowners in Rhode Island Choose Skylights and Sun Tunnels
Skylights and sun tunnels transform dark or closed-off spaces into brighter, more comfortable living areas. They help boost mood, reduce reliance on artificial lighting, improve ventilation, and can even support healthier indoor environments when properly installed. Rooms like bathrooms, hallways, stairwells, kitchens, and finished attics feel larger and more welcoming with natural light.

“Where Can Skylights or Sun Tunnels Be Installed?”

Skylights and sun tunnels can be installed in almost any part of the home, including kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, hallways, stairwells, closets, and garages. Even rooms with no direct roof access may still qualify by using angled tunnels or flexible tubing. During your free consultation, we help you plan the best location for light, privacy, and energy efficiency.

Why We Trust VELUX Skylights and Sun Tunnels
As the world leader in daylighting products, Velux offers durable, energy-efficient skylights and sun tunnels designed for New England weather. Their products feature built-in leak protection, impact-rated glass, high insulation values, and smart options like automatic ventilation, moisture sensors, blinds, and solar-powered openers.

“Health and Energy Benefits”

Natural light supports healthier sleep rhythms, reduces eyestrain, and helps create more positive living spaces. Sun tunnels and skylights reduce daytime use of interior lighting and can improve home efficiency when properly flashed, insulated, and sealed.

FAQs for Velux Skylights and Sun Tunnels

Skylights are larger and bring more direct natural light into rooms, with options for ventilation. Sun tunnels use reflective tubing to capture daylight and deliver it to smaller spaces like hallways, bathrooms, closets, and interior rooms where a traditional skylight may not be practical.
Popular locations include kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, stairwells, hallways, walk-in closets, garages, finished attics, and rooms without windows. We help homeowners find the best placement for light, privacy, and energy efficiency during the consultation.
Yes. Roof windows and venting skylights allow fresh air to flow into the home and stale air to rise and escape, promoting better air circulation, reducing humidity and odors in bathrooms and kitchens, and improving indoor comfort during warmer months.
Yes, skylights and sun tunnels can typically be installed on an existing roof as long as the roofing material and flashing are in good condition. If you plan to replace your roof soon, this is an ideal time to install or upgrade skylights for better flashing and waterproof integration.
When installed correctly with proper flashing, skylights do not cause leaks. We use Velux products that feature built-in leak protection, weather sealing, and curb-mounted options to secure long-term performance even during heavy rain and snow in Rhode Island.
Solar-powered skylights use a small rooftop solar panel to operate remote-control ventilation, blinds, and automatic closing features. They do not require wiring, qualify for energy incentives, and can include moisture sensors that close automatically during rain.
Yes. Velux skylights can be paired with voice control, automatic blinds, rain sensors, mobile app control, and home automation systems like Google Home, Alexa, and Apple HomeKit for even more convenience and comfort.
Natural daylight reduces the need for interior lighting during the day, and venting skylights can improve ventilation, reducing AC use. Modern skylights also include high-insulation glass that helps block heat loss in winter and reject heat in summer for better energy performance.
Velux skylights are designed for long-term use and come with strong manufacturer warranties when professionally installed. They are built to resist UV damage, cracking, and fading, and can be expected to perform for many years when properly flashed and maintained.
Yes. Sun tunnels can carry daylight from the roof to almost any room using reflective tubing or flexible shafts. Even rooms in the center of a home, or rooms with attic space above them, can often be brightened with sun tunnels.
Yes. Skylight blinds are available in room-darkening, light-filtering, or solar-powered options. They can be manual, remote-controlled, app-controlled, or part of a smart home system for light and temperature control.
Simply schedule a free onsite appointment. We will review roof access, attic space, room lighting needs, privacy concerns, and recommend the best skylight or sun tunnel options—including sizing, placement, and smart upgrades—based on your goals.
