Creating New Openings

A handsome abode in the Bonita neighborhood of Tigard, near the High School.

A second story bathroom slated for a little “light-therapy.”

The study of the effect of light is an intriguing one. Phototherapy, also known as heliotherapy is claimed to have a profound effect upon certain folks.

Wikipedia notes that the… “Common use of the term is associated with the treatment of skin disorders (chiefly psoriasis), sleep disorder and some psychiatric disorders. Light therapy directed at the skin is also used to treat acne vulgaris, eczema and neonatal jaundice.”

“Light therapy which strikes the retina of the eyes is used to treat circadian rhythm disorders such as delayed sleep phase disorder and can also be used to treat seasonal affective disorder, with some support for its use also with non-seasonal psychiatric disorders.” – Wikipedia

We have no idea whether or not our client’s interest fell beyond an aesthetic desire to brighten-up an otherwise dark room.

But one thing is for certain…Tim Afonin, one of our lead field technicians suffers not from a lack of light therapy.

The moisture-barrier is carefully applied and all related components properly flashed…and then the siding.

A small, unimpressive addition…perhaps.

But being among those who install and repair windows, doors, skylights, tube-lights, sunrooms, solariums & conservatories for a living…we share a keen appreciation for what “a little light accent” can do for anyone’s living quarters.
