Benefits of Choosing New View for Skylights & Sun Tunnels
How Does Fresno's Climate Affect Skylights & Sun Tunnels?
Fresno's 270+ sunny days per year make skylights and sun tunnels exceptionally effective. However, the intense summer heat requires proper glazing (Low-E coated) and solar-powered venting to prevent overheating. We install heat-reflective options designed for Central Valley conditions.
