When should I install the Tubular Skylight?

Tubular Skylight - Home
If you are re-roofing your home, the tubular skylight should be installed when the new roof is finished. They are designed as a retrofit into existing roofs. If you are building a new home, the roof must be on and the interior ceilings must be plastered. Do not install during construction. This will also increase the probability of incorrectly lining up the skylight. In addition, the job cannot be finished until the plaster is done as the tube attaches to the ceiling to hold it up.

Clincher rims have a "lip" onto which the tires are attached (no glue required) to the rim.
