DETAILS
Daystar Natural Lighting Systems provide brilliant, even illumination regardless of building size. In fact, DayStar’s light-harvesting method actually extends daylight hours every day of the year by collecting and dispersing more natural light during early mornings and late afternoons than any other daylighting system.
The result is superior illumination with little to no need for electric lights. With a properly designed and installed daylighting system from DayStar, you can have the efficiency and beauty of evenly distributed natural sunlight without the glare, extreme temperatures, or shadows of direct sunlight.
DayStar’s insulated curb, light shaft and lens provide 40–50% better thermal value than conventional skylight designs. That means you'll lose less heat in winter, and gain less heat in summer, reducing the burden on your heating and air conditioning systems.
These high-performance skylights can light up your home or business, matching the power of electric lights even on a cloudy day. That’s because DayStar’s unique design collects, amplifies, and disperses light evenly regardless of building size, even on cloudy days. The skylight domes feature watertight seams, which prevents leaking.
DayStar can help you save on long-term energy costs, increase your overall property value and conserve precious resources – all without sacrificing light.
Plus, this completely natural system is uncomplicated to install. It is available in 4’x4′, 2’x4′, and 2’x2′ sizes and are customized for roof pitch and roof type. The skylights can be built to your specifications and the service is quick and reliable.
This type of lighting system enhances indoor lighting with natural sunlight, reducing the need for artificial lighting and improving energy efficiency. Benefits often include better illumination, a more pleasant living or working environment, and potential savings on electricity costs.
High-performing. Affordable. Easy-to use. DayStar Natural Lighting Skylight Systems are a brilliant solution to your lighting needs.
Without compromising visible light transmittance (VLT), Daystar systems have over two times the thermal efficiency rating of common double-glazed dome skylights. Both U value and solar heat gain co-efficient (SHGC) ratings further differentiate DayStar systems, with numbers as low as .233 U value and .41 SHGC. These low numbers translate to less heat loss in the winter, less heat gain in the summer, and a lighter load for your HVAC system.
Natural light maximization via engineered daylighting systems can reduce daytime energy consumption. DayStar systems utilize sunlight, perhaps the most readily available source of renewable energy. In the quest to imitate natural light, artificial lighting systems have accumulated high price tags. Even so, daylighting systems remain an exemplary method for reducing dependence upon fossil fuels, simultaneously cutting harmful emissions.
Natural light is free of cost, year after year. DayStar systems utilize an energy source that is not only renewable but free. Harnessing natural light not only cuts the cost of generating artificial lighting, but reduces collateral expenses. For instance, artificial light creates greater heat loads, which must be offset by a building’s cooling system. With DayStar’s thermal design, energy and cooling costs can be reduced by 50%. Tax credits also frequently incentivize the dollars-and-cents side of daylighting. All in all, the typical payback period on a DayStar system is three to six years.
How it Works
- Dome Sunlight is gathered and diffused through an ultra-clear outer dome
and inner collimation dome lens. - Roof Curbs
Insulated roof curbs of galvalume steel or aluminum feature continuously welded watertight seams. Curbs can be fitted to almost any roof pitch and metal rib design. For perfect curb to roof color matching and added durability, we apply a unique powder coat finish that’s now standard on all DayStar systems. - LIGHT SHAFT
Insulated panels with highly reflective interior surfaces amplify light as its captured. Aesthetically appealing in open environments, these shafts require no attic support walls and are available in custom lengths. - CEILING LENS
Engineered to diffuse highly concentrated light into a broad lighting pattern, these fixtures are equal parts attractive and effective.
