Frequently Asked Questions
How much power does SUNPIPE LuxLoop use?
The actual amount of energy used by SUNPIPE LuxLoop depends on the amount of
natural daylight available and the control strategy for each system. The maximum
power usage for the artificial luminaire is 40W, however in practice there may be
days where only the natural daylight function is required.
What is the expected product life of SUNPIPE LuxLoop?
SUNPIPE LuxLoop has a 10 year warranty on all natural daylight components and a
5 year warranty on the artificial luminaire components when registered. The LEDs
powering the artificial light are rated to 50,000 hours usage. Because of the hybrid
nature of SUNPIPE LuxLoop this could be considered to be significantly longer in
terms of years of usage than an equivalent 50,000 hour rated light.
What happens if I require a replacement part?
Please feel free to contact Monodraught should you require any replacement
components.
Does the SUNPIPE LuxLoop require maintenance?
Due to the shape of the dome, the SUNPIPE is self-cleaning. The internal tube also
does not require any maintenance or cleaning, although care should be taken
during install to not leave finger marks on the mirror finish to ensure the very best
performance from the system. The artificial luminaire may need to be replaced after
50,000 hours of usage.
Do Monodraught sell light switches for the Standard configuration SUNPIPE LuxLoop?

lumens of natural daylight.
