Katikati is a charming town on the edge of the Bay of Plenty — known for its vibrant art scene, retirement-friendly community, and mix of modern homes and older bungalows. Many houses in the area feature long floorplans, deep verandas, or compact footprints, often resulting in internal rooms with limited access to daylight.
At SunTubes.co.nz, we offer NZ-made tubular skylights — also called sun tubes — that gather daylight from your roof and channel it indoors using sealed, reflective tubing. No wiring. No power bills. Just clean, natural daylight delivered where it’s needed most.
Room-by-Room Benefits
Why Choose Sun Tubes?
Sun Tubes represent the pinnacle of natural lighting solutions, offering a myriad of benefits that extend beyond simple illumination:
Energy Efficiency
Reduce your dependence on electric lighting by using free, natural light throughout the day.
Health and Well-being
Daylight supports comfort, mood, and visibility — a subtle but powerful way to improve your home environment.
Sustainability
100% passive and NZ-made — no moving parts, no electricity, and no maintenance required.
Architectural Harmony
Sun tubes suit a wide range of Katikati home styles — from character bungalows to eco-conscious lifestyle homes.
Why Sun Tubes Work for Katikati Homes
Many homes in Katikati are designed for privacy, insulation, or outlook — which often leaves internal rooms dark or reliant on lights, even during the day. Sun tubes solve this by capturing overhead daylight and delivering it to central rooms without altering your home’s structure.
Versatility
Installs easily on iron, tile, low-pitch, or flat roofs — suitable for all types of rural and town builds.
Efficient Lighting
Performs even on cloudy days — delivering soft, usable daylight without heat or glare.
Easy Installation
Most installs completed in a single day — with no internal construction or disruption needed.
Cost-Effective
An affordable, low-impact upgrade that brings long-term comfort and energy savings.
