Bail-Out Money is Coming Your Way... Ok, Just a Little.

The new year brings new ways to save money. Now Solatube is qualified as an energy improvement option for your home, making you eligible for a federal tax credit of 10% of the material cost, up to $200. For more information and qualifications, download the Frequently Asked Questions sheet.

To receive your tax credit, you will need:

• To fill out IRS form 5695.
• The Energy Star/NFRC label attached to the Solatube diffuser OR the DIY kit packaging. (You can also find it on the Solatube website.)
• The Energy Star Document (included in your Owner Packet, provided by the installer)
• A copy of the original purchase agreement

All you have to do is take the above information to your accountant when you do your taxes for 2009. This is just another great reason to install Solatubes in your home. You're saving money on energy, your home is brighter and more enjoyable, and the goverment's rewarding you for it.

Worried about Santa getting into your home this year? He is.

RE: "Santa-Tubes"

As you know, chimneys are what I normally use to deliver gifts, but the chimney situation is getting complicated. With all this spare-the-air business, I'm keeping it simple and skipping them entirely. Why not spare this old guy the trouble and install some Solatubes?

I know most of you are a bit strapped for cash and trust me, we realized things would be tight when we had to cut back on Talking Dolly* production. But tubular daylighting is the fastest and lowest-cost improvement you can make on your home. (They take less time to install than hanging up twinkle lights!) With the heater running nonstop and electric lights staying on extra hours all day, wouldn't it be nice to get a break on your electric bill? Solatubes brighten your dark home in the winter without using any electricity. (And the daylight brightens your bad mood after ugly weather, tacky gifts, and a growing gut).

My job is made easier by people with Solatubes. Not only do I stay clean and free of nasty burns, but those larger ones are easier to squeeze through. When I can save time on enter/exit shenanigans, I have time to leave more gifts, making everyone happy! Ho ho ho!

If you want lots of 'green' gifts from my green bag of goodies, install some Solatubes. I'd do it for you, but those Certified Installers are faster than the blink of an eye and guarantee a leak proof installation (plus they're a whole lot cleaner than reindeer).

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a bright light.

*P.S. I hear that, unlike Toyland, Naturalight has a surplus of Daylight Dollies. But you didn't hear that from me.

Solatube Owners Get More Presents from Santa
With about a 2-hour installation per tube, the installer will be cleaned up and out the door before you even finish stringing your Christmas lights. With such a hassle-free home improvement that saves electricity throughout the festivities, why wait until after the holidays? Besides, St. Nick can deliver more presents when he has both a chimney and a Solatube to work with.

Usher in the Season of Light with the Harvest Fair

This weekend, October 3 & 4, the Sonoma County Harvest Fair is coming to the fairgrounds. Look for our indoor booth in the Grace Pavilion to see Solatubes in action. For directions and a schedule of events, click here. As the days get shorter and the sun disappears, your home can still be brighter with natural daylight.

Glow in the Light of the Season
By installing Solatubes now, you won't have to rush to finish home improvements before family comes for the holidays. Imagine how your skin will glow when they greet you and comment on your good health. And how delicious the hearty meal will look under full spectrum sunlight. The family photo might turn out better this year since the colors will look balanced and natural, and it will make you smile when it's no longer framed in a shadowy corner. Even if the day is dark outside, your home will be illuminated with the cheer of natural light and the warmth of loved ones.

Give to Others by Gifting Yourself
With Solatube, you won't have to turn electric lights on during the day anymore, so when it comes time to gift-shop, your pocketbook will have a joyful new jangle. You'll be happier, not just because of the savings, but also because daylight makes you feel better. The wonderful thing about Solatube is that it's designed to bring in the light when you need it most--Not just when the sun's high and strong in the summer, but when it's low in the winter sky, too. Learn how the dome makes this possible by clicking here.

There's no need to live in the dark for yet another winter. If you still have questions, check out the Free Information Package and soon you'll know that Solatube is the bright decision.
