Monodraught Sunpipes
We are specialists in all aspects of the supply & installation of Monodraught Sunpipes, approved by Monodraught to cover the whole of the South West of England.
A normal skylight only provides light when the sun shines through it. The SunPipe's round shape and reflective interior gathers any light from the sky, bouncing the light rays around the reflective interior, and bringing it down into your room, where the intensified light is then diffused into your room, flooding it with free natural daylight.
Monodraught SunPipes pipe in sunlight and natural daylight into any roof, for domestic office use, commercial or industrial use. There is no heat loss nor any solar gain with a SunPipe. SunPipes provide energy free lighting to light up a whole room.

SunPipe is a revolutionary way to pipe natural daylight from your rooftop into any room or area in your home. Bringing natural light to areas where daylight cannot reach. Using SunPipe's revolutionary super-reflective tube that intensifies all natural light. With adjustable elbows SunPipe can twist and turn to bring daylight to exactly where you need it.
SunPipe's energy free, super reflective tube even extends through adjustable bends and has an internal mirror finish that intensifies and reflects natural daylight delivering free outdoor light to a room or area below - where the light is evenly diffused by a translucent ceiling fixture.

Examples of our work
This loft conversion, that we carried out, shows the first ever SunPipes I fitted. The picture on the left shows what previously was a very dark stairway, with the addition of two SunPipes we transformed it into a bright area. I was so impressed by these that I became the official installer for Monodraught in the South West.
A recent installation to brighten up a dark music room. Besides these 4 sunpipes we also installed 3 others on the same premises. This took 2 days to instal.
This installation was carried out for a property developer to bring extra light to an otherwise dark interior. On average an installation like this would take 3-4 hours.
These sunpipes were installed in the roof of an extention to a retirement home bringing much needed light into the interior hallway.
These pictures show what can be achieved using a 450mm sunpipe to brighten up a large kitchen.
This was an installation of four SunPipes, two flat roof and two pitched roof which we later decked around.
ADM Installations is based in Torbay in the Westcountry but we travel all over Southern England.
