Fakro SFH High Profile Tile Light Tunnel Tubes

Fakro SFH High Profile Tile Light Tunnel Tubes

The Fakro SFH High Profile Tile Light Tunnel Tubes offer a practical way to bring natural daylight into rooms where installing a traditional roof window or vertical window is not possible. By collecting sunlight at roof level and guiding it into the room below, the system can help brighten darker areas of a building naturally.

Bring Daylight Into Difficult Spaces

The SFH is particularly useful for rooms where structural obstacles prevent the installation of conventional windows. Its flexible light-transmitting tube can be routed around obstacles, making it easier to connect the roof-level opening with the ceiling diffuser below. As sunlight enters the tunnel, it is reflected along the walls of the reflective tube and directed downwards towards the diffuser. Once it reaches the ceiling diffuser, the natural light is distributed evenly throughout the room.

Reflective Light-Transmitting Tube

The system combines a flexible light-transmitting tube with a rigid section made from aluminium. The aluminium tube is covered with a reflective silver-based layer designed to reflect and guide daylight through the tunnel. This design helps direct available sunlight towards the diffuser, providing a simple daylighting solution for rooms that may otherwise have limited access to natural light.

Designed for High Profile Tile Roofs

The Fakro SFH is supplied with integrated flashing suitable for a range of roof coverings, including flat, corrugated, high-profile and slate roofing materials. This makes it suitable for different roof constructions while providing a secure connection between the light tunnel and roof covering. The system is suitable for roof pitches from 15° to 60°, as well as flat roofs, giving you flexibility when planning the installation.

Roof Tiles & Fittings:

We recommend ordering an additional 10% of roof tiles to allow for any breakages that may occur during delivery or handling. Roof tiles are naturally fragile, and having a few extra on site helps prevent delays and ensures your roofing project can be completed without interruption.
