We looked at them a few years back and received similar feedback.
Apparently, great in concept but useless in reality.....BUT......Never
actually seen one installed.

I have to say that although I think a sunpipe is a great idea though I have
had some really negative feedback from contractors regarding sunpipes.



Saying that there is never enough sun and that they are practically
useless.



Happy to be proved wrong though as I think they are a great idea .



Sorry if this is a bit disjointed .. a bit drunk .. been playing lawn bowls

That was going to be my suggestion, Saw this at the homebuilders show
attached to the smart home show earlier this year and they looked a
cool idea!!
