SOLATUBE & VELUX

BRIGHTEN AND COOL YOUR SPACE

Natural light and smarter airflow for Far North Queensland homes and businesses. Solatube tubular skylights and Velux roof windows, supplied and installed locally by LTS.

Modern open kitchen and dining area with a wooden dining table surrounded by black chairs, a kitchen island with bar stools, and a sliding glass door.

BRANDS YOU TRUST. GEAR THAT HOLDS

Cheap gear fails on site. It costs you once at the register and again when you're back fixing what it broke. We stock brands that perform in Far North Queensland conditions because your name is on every job you walk away from.

VELUX

WHAT IS A VELUX ROOF WINDOW?

A Velux roof window is a full-size glass panel installed directly into your roof. Fixed or opening (manually, electrically, or solar powered), it brings natural light and real ventilation into rooms that have neither.

OPENS TO VENTILATE

Natural light and airflow without running your air con flat out.

LIGHT AND AIR, NO POWER BILL

Less air conditioning demand means real savings across every season.

SOLATUBE

WHAT IS A SOLATUBE?

A Solatube tubular skylight channels natural daylight through your roof and into your home or business. No heat, no glare, no UV damage. Just bright, even light in rooms that natural light could never normally reach.

NATURAL LIGHT, NO HEAT

Bright, even light delivered straight into your space without the tropical heat burden.

NO POWER NEEDED

No electricity to operate. Light during the day, zero impact on your power bill.

Climate

WHY BOTH MAKE SENSE IN CAIRNS

Cairns heat is relentless. Solatube delivers natural light with no heat and no UV. Velux roof windows go further, opening up to let the hot air out and fresh air in. Two different products, same goal: a cooler, brighter space without running your air con flat out.

Smart light

Bright interiors without the tropical heat burden.

Lower bills

Less reliance on air conditioning and artificial lighting.

WHAT THE LOCALS ARE SAYING

Local Trading Supplies in Cairns did an absolutely amazing job in installing our Solatube. It’s a wonderful product and this is the second one that we’ve installed in our house. We get so much light, I keep thinking I’ve left the light on… 😂. I definitely recommend Local Trading Supplies. The customer service was exceptional and they installed our tube very quickly. Many thanks
