I mean it's only practical during the daylight hours, it's a big penetration in the roof that's prone to leaks and weakens the roof, and it lets in a huge amount of heat on sunny days.
So my question to you is this. If the manufacturer offered you the choice would you rather:
- Take the skylight as standard equipment
- Skip the skylight and opt for $150 cash in your pocket
- Skip the skylight and take a 150 watt solar panel in that spot for no extra cost.
I suspect one reason they are their is for headroom. I'm just over 6ft tall and w/o the skylight I'd bump my head on the ceiling. And I do like the light.
