Solatube by Perk Inc. was started a little over 15 years ago, when David Perkins, owner, was designing homes & a customer asked him about Solatubes. After researching the product, David was so taken by the concept & products that he changed careers & has been doing it ever since. David considers it “divine intervention”. “I enjoy meeting wonderful folks while lighting up their homes with natural light”.
His staff of 5 is augmented by his wife Shawn, who helps with home shows & various projects & daughter Shelby, who assists with organizing supplies.
“Perkins attributes some of his success to his perfectionism. “It’s my way to assuring our customers receive consistent, top-quality workmanship.” Infact, at least 1/3 of satisfied customers return wanting to add more Solatubes to their homes and refer their friends to David for installs. “People are amazed at the amount of light, even on cloudy days,” Perkins said. “The natural light allows people to see true colors. Health benefits include providing the natural light in winter months to combat depression. They don’t add heat in the summer or cold during the winter months.”
“As a country boy, I enjoy being treated with that great American country hospitality occasionally. Customers have given me fresh vegetables from their gardens during the summer and baked goodies during the winter. Some insist that I eat lunch with them.”
Solatube products speak for themselves. “Solatube is rated No. 1 by Consumer Reports,” he said. The Energy Star approved tubes are 100% airtight, water tight, maintenance free & UVA/UVA protected. Solatube products also come with a 10 year warranty. One Solatube installed, normally takes about 2-3 hours & is a turn-key job. Solatube is now offering DSe Daylighting systems that meet the government’s requirements for U-factor and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) maxima of 0.30 to receive a 30% tax credit for the year 2010. “We’ve been blessed over the years. Even with the economy the way it is now, we’ve never been so busy. Maybe people are thinking more green and like energy saving products.”
Solatubes come in three sizes and can be installed in residential or commercial spaces. The sizes are 10”, 14” & 21” & offer many different add-on options, including daylight dimmers, light kits, vent kits, & designer lens. Solatube by Perk Inc. also offers total attic ventilation services, including the SolarStar, which also qualifies for the 30% tax credit for 2010.
