Brighten areas from dawn to dusk where daylight from windows cannot reach.
The Sunpipe is a revolutionary new way to pipe natural daylight from your rooftop into your home - to brighten areas from dawn to dusk where daylight from windows cannot reach.
SunPipe's energy free, super reflective tube even extends through adjustable bends and has an internal mirror finish that intensifies and reflects natural daylight delivering free outdoor light to a room or area below - where the light is evenly diffused by a translucent ceiling fixture.
- No structural alterations required, easily fits between joists and rafters.
- No maintenance required and will not leak.
- Top dome is self-cleaning due to its shape and eliminates condensation problems.
- All SunPipe systems are guaranteed for 25 years against faulty manufacture.
- Few fixings are required, normal single fixing at base of system.
- Joints are sealed using aluminium tape.
- Can normally be installed in two or three hours.
There is virtually no limit to the length of SunPipe or number of bends that can be used and the SunPipe can twist and turn easily to take natural light to exactly where you want it.
Diamond Dome SunPipes are avaliable in the following sizes:
The 9" (230mm) Diamond Dome
Suitable for shower rooms, toilets, landings, corridors or any small space where daytime lighting is required.
Will typically light up an area of 6sq metres, i.e an area of 6' x 9'
approx (80 sq. ft). Bringing natural daylight to your home to an
equivalent of up to 200 watts of electric lighting.
The 12" (300mm) Diamond Dome
The most popular size for residential properties, suitable for kitchens,
bathroooms, studies, living rooms and landings. To light up an area of
approx. 14 sq. metres (150 sq. ft.)

- Information and publications to help you create healthy and ecological homes and buildings. See Green Building Press
- Loft insulation and cavity wall insulation, energy retaining glazing, Heat-Harvester™, Sunpipes, modern gas central heating systems, solar water heating systems, wind turbines (coming soon) ~ all these can help to reduce the amount of energy used in heating and lighting and reduce bills enormously.
- Low energy lamps last up to ten times longer than ordinary bulbs and use far less electricity - so you can do your bit towards saving the planet from climate change too.
- Remember to turn off lights when you leave a room for long periods.
- Use an eco-kettle to boil water for cooking - they're more efficient at getting up to temperature. Avoid over-filling the kettle but be sure to cover the element.
- Where you need to use saucepans - use the lid and turn down the heat!! Less energy is lost that way. Highly efficient hobs are now available more news about that later.
- Use a toaster rather than the grill to make toast.
- Make sure your hot water tank and hot water pipes are fully lagged, this can pay for itself in a few months and go on saving you money for years to come.
- Put draught strips around windows and exterior doors. If possible fit a flap across the letter-box.
- Where possible wait until you have a full load before using your washing machine.
- If you use a dishwasher select the low-temperature programme unless you have very soiled dishes.
- If you have a dripping tap ensure it is repaired quickly. In just one day, you could waste enough hot water to fill a bath.
- Switch off your TV, video and Hi-Fi at the set. Standby can use as much as 10%-60% of the power that would be used by the device if it was switched on.
- Defrost fridges and freezers regularly to keep them running efficiently.
- Shower if possible, rather than take a bath, this saves money and water.
- At night, pull all curtains to stop heat loss through the windows. Take care not to drape curtains over radiators as this will funnel heat straight out of the windows.
- Don't set your water thermostat too high; 60°C/140°F is usually adequate for bathing and washing.
- Reducing your room temperature by just 1°C can cut as much as 10% off your heating bills.
- Turn off the tap whilst brushing your teeth. If everyone in the country did so, it would save millions of litres of wasted water every DAY!! Producing and transporting water is expensive and uses energy.
