We can run up to 9 illume from a single solar panel, we call this a multi-system, however, it is subject to the illume panel size. An Illume multisystem is great for simplifying the installation and minimizing the footprint on your home’s roof. A multisystem also gives more consistent performance across the units installed in your home.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to add an illume to any existing system, as the solar collectors are sized to the illume/s sold with the system.

The body of the illume panels is 10mm front to back the same thickness as your plaster. This means they can be installed almost anywhere on the ceiling without considering any beams or battens behind the unit.
 
 

If you would like a flush look, yes, you must cut a hole. However, we have an option in most premium sizes called a “Surface Mount”. This has the illume panel mounted to the ceiling, rather than recessed into it. Be aware it is impossible to change to or from a surface mount illume once supplied.

YES! It is safe to reinstate the insulation over the back of the illume to ensure the property remains protected from the weather elements. The illume panel has an IC4 – Rating

YES! Your illume will fade out as the sun goes down, however you have the option to use your illume better than a skylight at night. The AC Driver accessory will connect your illume to mains power.

YES! We have an accessory called the Illume Remote Dimmer Switch Kit. The dimmer allows you to turn on or off and soften the light.

No, we don’t have a battery option, as it may get too hot in the roof cavity for a battery.

Yes, if you use a remote-control dimmer kit.

Unfortunately not, we use ambient light technology which has a cool white tone.

You will not see an outline of a Bird, however you will notice a dip in light output from your illume as a section of the solar collector is shaded.

Like a traditional skylight, your illume will not be as bright on those full cloudy days, however it will still provide you with enough brightness if sized correctly.
 
 

We recommend you call your dealer that installed your illume and they will troubleshoot the problem. In the event you purchased your illume elsewhere, you can contact us directly and one of our friendly team can help you out.

Our illume solar collectors have withstood many recent large hailstorms, however, if you do find your illume solar collector damaged do not fear we are an Australian-made and Australian family-owned company who have spare parts. We recommend you call the dealer that installed your illume. In the event you purchased your illume elsewhere, you can contact us directly and one of our friendly team can help you out.

The premium has a higher output of lumens, which gives you a greater square meterage cover. It also gives you the option of a surface mount illume and the ability to extend the cables.

The cable is approximately 10mm thick, it is bendable so you will have no trouble feeding this through your roof cavity to your solar collector.
