What Are Skylights
and Solar Fans?
Skylights
A skylight is a structure that usually is situated on the roof of a home or building that lets in natural light. Much like a window, a skylight can light a room in the day. This saves energy on lighting costs since its natural light. A skylight can warm a home in the winter with sunlight and cool a home in the summer, allowing hot air to escape (if it is open).
Eustis Roofing Company uses only the best kind of skylights for installation. We use Kennedy Skylights. Kennedy Skylights produce quality-grade skylights for residential and commercial uses.
Kennedy believes in providing products that are not only well-designed but also energy efficient, meeting the qualifications for green buildings. Their product lines can be viewed here.
Types of Skylights We Install and Service
Fixed Skylights
Fixed skylights are stationary and do not open, making them ideal for providing consistent natural lighting in rooms where ventilation isn’t required, such as hallways or stairwells. With their high-quality glass skylights, these installations capture the sun’s energy to naturally brighten your space while helping to reduce electricity use. Eustis Roofing’s fixed skylights provide a sleek, modern look while offering reliable, energy-efficient lighting that suits both residential and commercial settings across Central Florida.
Ventilating Skylights
Ventilating skylights offer the added benefit of airflow, allowing you to open the skylight to release hot air and maintain a comfortable temperature. These skylights are particularly useful in kitchens, bathrooms, and other humid spaces where ventilation is beneficial. By allowing warm air to escape, ventilating skylights help to cool your home during warmer months while still delivering ample natural lighting. Our professional team ensures the proper installation of ventilating skylights, enhancing both energy efficiency and indoor air quality.
Tubular Skylights
Tubular skylights, also known as sun tunnels, are compact and designed for smaller spaces or rooms with limited roof access. These skylights channel the sun’s energy through reflective tubes, delivering bright natural lighting without the need for a large roof opening. Ideal for closets, bathrooms, or hallways, tubular skylights are a low-profile option that can make dark spaces more inviting. Eustis Roofing installs high-efficiency tubular skylights, perfect for maximizing light while keeping installation costs low.

Solar Fans
Simply put, a solar fan is a fan that is powered by solar energy. The fan acquires this energy from solar panels that are either mounted on the device itself or are installed on the roof, independently. Solar fans mostly do not need a source of secondary power—sunlight is enough energy for them. These fans are commonly used for cooling attics and homes in the day.
Our solar-powered exhaust fans do lower the temperature in your attic, affording you lower cooling costs in your home and lowering the temperature at the top of your attic. The lower the temperature is beneath your shingles, the longer the lifespan of your roof will be. It is important that we scientifically evaluate the location of the fan so it does not interfere with the proper functioning of existing roof vents.
At Eustis Roofing Company, we use Solaro Energy solar fans. Solaro Energy is the leading producer of energy-efficient solar fans for residential and commercial uses. They produce high-quality, long-lasting products that are low on maintenance are a return on their investment.
