The dome comes ready formed in a Genuine Decra\u00ae roof tile, so it fits seamlessly with the rest of the roof. The domed shape ensures it captures the maximum amount of light and the material is strong against tree debris etc.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]<span style=\"color: #000000;\">2) The light then travels down into the home through a flexible metal tube. The polished metal reflects the light from it\u2019s surface so that it \u201cbounces\u201d down the tube. Being flexible means you can direct the light to exactly where you need it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">3) Where you need the natural light, the tube connects to a diffuser which is attached to your ceiling like an electric light fitting would be.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1680&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<span style=\"color: #000000;\">The diffuser is made in a specific way which ensures that the light is spread out into the room. Using the sun tunnel means you can be less reliant on electric lighting and on electricity itself. During daylight hours, you could substitute electric lighting altogether:<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1681&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">For more information on Decra\u00ae Healthy Living enhancements, please visit our <strong><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.decraafrica.com\/en-ga\/accessories\/\">accessories page<\/a><\/strong>, view our <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YD-DNJpo-90\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>film<\/strong><\/a>, or <strong><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.decraafrica.com\/en-ga\/contact\/\">contact us<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Search #GenuineDecra<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Your Genuine Decra\u00ae roof can do so much more than keep the weather out.
