Solatube History
Solatube’s history started 30 years ago in Australia when the CEO helped invent the first ever tubular skylight. They named their invention Solatube Daylighting System. This invention started a revolution in the tubular skylight industry. This high-tech, leak-proof skylight, was the catalyst that transformed the world of daylighting. This modern skylight was a hit with homeowners because it was a third of the price of a traditional skylight with twice as much natural light. Plus, it didn’t leak. Soon after manufacturing began, Premier Dealers were trained and certified to install the Solatube Tubular Skylights in to homes.
