Learn how Solatube Skylights can create healthier and happier environments to live and work in.

Natural light is often something that gets taken for granted, but it's actually incredibly important to the health of everyone, especially for developing children. So how do you get more light into spaces where people work and children play? Topps Products’ solar distribution division, Topps Solar Energy, has a solution in the form of the Solatube Skylights! These skylights are an innovative solution to illuminating interior spaces with natural light that fosters a healthier and happier environment for children, parents and people in general.  

The benefits of natural light for children’s development and general well-being

Natural light plays a pivotal role in children’s development and the overall well-being of the occupants of a space. Studies have shown that exposure to natural sunlight positively impacts mood, regulates circadian rhythms and enhances vitamin D production, crucial for bone health. In educational settings, ample natural light has been linked to improved concentration, better academic performance and reduced symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD). By incorporating Solatube skylights, people can create a healthy and stimulating environment designed for thriving.

How Solatube Tubular Skylights enhance creativity and productivity

Solatube tubular skylights are designed to capture and distribute natural sunlight throughout interior spaces, creating a balanced and glare-free illumination. This even distribution of light enhances visibility without the heat gain associated with traditional skylights, making them perfect for playrooms, bedrooms and study areas. The consistent lighting provided by Solatube skylights fosters creativity, enabling children to explore their artistic talents, conduct science experiments and engage in imaginative play with clarity and inspiration.

Case studies and testimonials

Real-life examples highlight the transformative impact of Solatube skylights in spaces. Families across the country have shared their experiences of how these daylighting devices have turned once-dull rooms into vibrant, inviting areas where children eagerly spend their time. For instance, the Thompson family from Seattle installed Solatube skylights in their daughter’s bedroom, noting a noticeable improvement in her mood and sleep patterns. Similarly, educators have praised Solatube skylights in classroom settings, noting enhanced focus and enthusiasm among students during lessons.

Tips for integrating Solatube Skylights

Integrating Solatube skylights into a space is a straightforward and rewarding process. Start by identifying areas where natural light is most needed, such as playrooms, nurseries or study corners. Consider the orientation of the home and the placement of existing windows to maximize daylight penetration. Solatube offers various sizes and designs to suit different room dimensions and architectural styles, ensuring seamless integration without major structural changes.
