Sun tubes are the ideal way to light internal rooms in Lower Hutt homes — from Petone villas to new builds in Wainuiomata. Let daylight do the work — no wiring, no hassle.

Lower Hutt is home to a wide range of properties — from historic homes in Petone and Alicetown, to mid-century suburbs like Naenae and Taita, through to new developments in Wainuiomata and Kelson. Across all of them, common challenges remain: internal rooms with little or no natural light.

At SunTubes.co.nz, we offer a passive lighting solution made for this kind of urban living. Our NZ-made tubular skylights — known as sun tubes — channel natural daylight from the roof into bathrooms, hallways, kitchens and other areas without the need for structural changes or electricity.

Room-by-Room Benefits

Bedroom

Brighten south-facing or enclosed bedrooms — especially in two-storey homes or compact sections.

Kitchen

Improve visibility and ambience in central kitchens — common in Lower Hutt’s bungalows and modern family homes.

Bathroom

Sun tubes are ideal for internal bathrooms and ensuites that lack windows but need clean, usable light.

Hallway

Lower Hutt homes often feature long, enclosed corridors — sun tubes brighten these without added power use.

Garage / Utility Room

Bring daylight into garages or laundries, which are typically windowless or in basement levels.

Home Office / Study Nook

Support clear thinking and comfort in remote work spaces — increasingly important in multi-use homes.

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

Sun tubes help reduce reliance on lights during the day — saving money and reducing your carbon footprint.

Health and Well-being

Daylight supports mood, comfort, and daily rhythms — perfect for homes with limited sunlight exposure.

Sustainability

Completely passive — no power required, no switches to install. Our systems are NZ-made and built to last.

Architectural Harmony

Designed to suit Lower Hutt’s mix of architectural styles — from timber weatherboards to mono-pitch builds.

Why Sun Tubes Work for Lower Hutt Homes

In dense suburbs or homes close to neighbours, many rooms are blocked from direct light. Fencing, building height, or rooflines limit how far natural light reaches inside — but sun tubes solve this from above, delivering light where windows can’t.
