How does MaxLight Tubular Skylight work?

MaxLight skylights are designed to capture natural daylight from the roof and deliver it evenly into the room below. The system uses advanced dome, tube and diffuser technology to bring in bright natural light while reducing heat transfer.

  • Raycatcher® Capturing Technology: The optical dome sits on the roof and captures maximum sunlight, even in low-light conditions. Its hail-resistant shape and crystal-clear surface help direct natural light into the skylight system.
  • Miro-Silver® Reflective Tube: The captured sunlight travels through a highly reflective aluminium tube. This tube helps deliver pure daylight colour into the home while maintaining strong light performance.
  • Auroramax® Diffusion Technology: At ceiling level, the triple-lens diffuser spreads the light evenly throughout the room. This helps reduce hot spots and provides more natural light with less heat.
  • Bright natural light enters the room: Once the light passes through the diffuser, it fills the space below with soft, even daylight, helping brighten dark rooms, hallways, bathrooms and living areas.
