illume™ Skylight Alternative system is the skylight alternative solution you can easily install almost anywhere. illume™ enables home owners and designers to introduce an ambience to internal spaces that is not unlike the ambience created by natural light, including in spaces where traditional skylights cannot be fitted, and it avoids many of the inherent problems with shafted systems such as leaks, bugs and heat transfer.

With illume™, basements and other spaces lacking direct access to external light, such as ground floor corridors and internal bathrooms, can also enjoy the ambience not unlike natural looking light that creates the feeling of harmony with external conditions without the intrusive infrastructure of a light shaft.

As with traditional skylights, the time of day and density of cloud cover will determine how much energy is harnessed by the solar collector and therefore the lighting levels emitted by illume™. Also, because the system is solar powered, there are no ongoing running costs. Best of all, illume™ Skylight Alternative Systems are a DIY solution that do not require specialist trade skills for installation.
