Single Pack Kit Option Information
Select your Solatube Metal Roof Flashing:
-
Pitched metal flashing is used for roofs with a pitch of 4:12 - 12:12. It includes two 20" extension tubes, for a total of 51" of tube length.
-
No pitch metal flashing is used for roofs that have little to no pitch. Flat roofs and roofs with pitches 0:12 to 3:12. There may be only 11" or less distance between the ceiling penetration and the roof penetration. So there are no extension tubes for a total 11" tube length. We recommend that you purchase at least one 20" extension tube; however, this will make connecting the roof deck penetration and the ceiling penetration less difficult.
- If you are installing onto a metal roof, use Solatube Metal Roof Flashing. It is sold separately.
- If you are installing onto a clay tile roof, then use Solatube Universal Tile Flashing for clay tile roofs (Tile Flashing requires standard pitched or no-pitch flashing as a base).
-
Solatube Extension Tube Options: Bring light in from the sun with the correct tube length.
-
No pitch metal flashing kit has extension tubes. It spans only 11 inches, so your system will most likely need at least one 20" extension tube.
-
Pitched Metal Flashing kit has two 20" extension tubes so its extension tubes will span up to 51".
-
No Tubes: This option is for those with 11" or less between the ceiling and roof. This is extremely rare. We recommend purchasing at least one 20" extension tube to make connecting the roof deck penetration and the ceiling penetration more difficult.
-
Two 20" Extension Tubes (additional cost): This option is for those with a span between ceiling and roof up to 51". More Solatube Extension Tubes are available if you need to span more than 51".
-
Custom Extension Tubes (additional cost): Solatube 20" Extension Tubes and Solatube 0-90° Degree Elbow Extension Tubes
-

Solatube Light Add On Kit: When equipped with a light add on kit, the Solatube Daylighting System provides the convenience of a switched light for night time use. Adding a light to your Solatube means you will always have the light you need. Available in Compact Fluorescent and Incandescent. Bulbs are sold separately. Light Add-on Kits do not include extension tubes. Bulbs are 23W (4-pin connector) for Compact fluorescent and 100W for Incandescent kits.
Solatube Ventilation Add-On Kit: (Roof Vent Cap sold separately): The Solatube 160 DS is available with an optional Ventilation Add-On Kit that’s designed for exceptional style and performance. When combined with this innovative accessory, the 2-in-1 ceiling fixture minimizes ceiling penetrations, resulting in a more attractive look. Proprietary technology utilizes twin fan motors with opposing rotations to overcome static pressure, thereby increasing the speed and volume of airflow. The in-line fan motors can be mounted away from the ceiling fixtures for quieter performance. Blends with any decor.
Solatube Daylight Dimmer: (Dimmer switch sold separately): Because you don’t need 100% of the light 100% of the time. The innovative Solatube Daylight Dimmer allows you to easily control the amount of light desired in any room from a Solatube skylight. Designed for maximum comfort and ease of use, adjust the desired light level from the convenience of a switch.
Solatube Thermal Insulation Panel: In Cold Climates, the thermal insulation panel keeps cold out to reduce heat loss, and in warm climates, it prevents heat buildup, which improves energy efficiency and reduces cooling loads.
