The Crystalite Tubular Skylight Dimmer is fully assembled from the factory, but needs to be plugged into a standard electrical outlet. The dimmer installation should be completed in conjunction with Steps 13 and 14 from the Tubular Skylight installation instructions.
The dimmer light pipe assembly is 13 1/2″ tall and its height must be calculated into the overall light pipe length needed in the attic. The best positioning of the dimmer assembly is at the bottom of the light pipe going into the home (see illustration).
NOTE: If dimmer is installed along with the light kit, the dimmer section must be placed above the light kit section.
The Crystalite Tubular Skylight Dimmer is operated using the provided remote control. Pushing the “ON” button begins to rotate the dimmer panel and pushing the “OFF” button will stop the rotation. To achieve varying amounts of incoming light, adjust the “ON” and “OFF” buttons to move the dimmer panel until the desired amount of light enters the room (the dimmer panel will rotate 360 degrees).
