Health Benefits

When installed in a large opening on a roof, skylights have been the traditional way of lighting our homes with natural daylight. The amount of natural light that a skylight installation can allow is up to 5 times more than that of a typical wall window of the same size. Sunlight is full-spectrum light and is better for our eyes, body, and mind than the artificial light from bulbs and tubes. Ample amounts of sunlight can prevent vitamin D and B1 deficiencies.
