Money. Solar tubes are not cheap to buy or install. The longer they have to go, the more expensive they become.

    Its a link to solar tubes on the home depot website. I'm not familiar with this error.

    Same error here. I can't access their home page either, so it's probably a geoblock.

    Yeah +1 on the geoblock theory. Usian websites have a lot of trackers and spyware, which are illegal in a lot of other places (like the EU). Instead of fixing the sites, it's cheaper to geoblock those areas. At least they're not lying about their compliance and spying without permission...
