"The difference is like night and day. The service is exceptionally fast and prompt and there was not a speck of anything to clean up when the job was done. I highly recommend nycdaylighting for Solatube installation if you want a brighter home."

-Ann Sweeney, Staten Island, NY

"The addition of the solatube to our house has completely changed the way we live inside our home. Our basement is partially submerged, but in our neighborhood, everyone tries to utilize every single foot of space, and we've been using the bottom floor as both the living room and kitchen. Suddenly, the rooms where we spend most of our time are flooded with daylight, even when it's raining, even when there is a foot of snow on our roof. We're in the habit of simply not turning on the lights in the room where the solatube is, and this winter, when we were forced to stay inside with two small kids, we got much needed cheery sunlight added to those short days. We couldn't be happier with the decision to add the solatube to our home, and we're looking for more places in the house that we can utilize this incredible opportunity."

Solar Star RM 1600 Attic Fan

Dear NYC Daylighting,

I just want to tell you how very pleased I am with my new solar attic fan.  It does seem unbelievable, but I have been sleeping so much better since it was installed.  I have had a sleeping problem for quite some time and I cannot tell you how thrilled and surprised I am about the extra sleep I am getting.  

My neighbor and I would go to each other's house and hers was always much cooler than mine.  We have identical houses and could not understand why the difference in temperature.  When she had her Solatube installed the day that I had my solar attic fan installed we found out the answer.  The installer, Chris, informed her that she already had an attic fan from NYC Daylighting.

So I just want to thank you so much for the extra benefit that I am getting  from the new attic fan.

I have been a fan of Solar Star since I had the Solatube installed five years ago.  Michael  was so helpful in setting up the work for the attic fan. 

Thank you so very much!!!!

Sincerely,

Marcia H.

TO: NYC Daylighting: Thank you so much for making my Solar Attic Fan experience such a nice one. I wasn't sure I should get it without talking to friends about it first but it's doing the job just as I thought it would and just as you both explained it to me!!! I'm loving it and know "I did good" by getting it. 
 
Today is a very hot muggy day but it is actually nicer in my home than outside thanks in part to the Solar Attic Fan. Usually by 3:00 until midnight or so my house is warmer and stuffier than outside. It used to take so long to cool down inside my house. Now it's not only better than it used to be but better than it is outside! I'm really happy about it. I notice I'm using my ceiling fans less and closing my front door earlier!
 
Michael was so nice, helpful and even really fun to speak with on the phone and then Barney showed me the product and re-explained everything and was so nice and easy to have at my home. It's just really nice to work with such good people and such a good product. It made my decision easy. Installation was fast and easy and now I'm happy with my decision. How great is this!
 
So, I just wanted to give you a big thank you..... THANK YOU! I will recommend you and the Solar Attic Fan.
 
Sincerely,
Marilyn T.

Dear NYC Daylighting,

I was going to buy an air conditioner, I am so happy I didn't waste my money.  My house is about 10 degrees cooler and it has cleared up my moisture problem in the winter time.   

The best part about my solar powered attic fan is that it runs by the sun so I pay no money to keep my house cool.

Finally, they came out and were profession and did quality work.

Thanks NYC Daylighting,

I am one of those people that is skeptical by nature, so I wasn't sure about the solar powered attic fan and all the claims that were made.

So what i did was take a tempature reading in my attic before they installed the unit.  I had a 40 degree change in temperature in my attic, which in turn made my house so much cooler.

I am no longer a skeptic on the solar powered attic fan and I would recommend this product to my family memebers.

Thanks NYC Daylighting
