That commitment to sustainability has actually triggered Baumans to progressively buy energy performance for more than a decade– cutting yearly natural gas usage by an estimated 55,000 therms and providing yearly energy expense savings of around $42,200.
In 2015, when it was time to install a brand-new greenhouse, Baumans reached out to greenhouse vendor OBC Northwest, Inc. for an energy-efficient model made 100% of twin-wall polycarbonate. “Although its a large area with two bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature level in the greenhouse stays quite constant,” stated Bauman. The greenhouses polycarbonate has a pigment that diffuses light, supplying outstanding light quality for plant development. Roofing vents in each bay permit natural ventilation. The gable style has an internal truss that can accommodate a motorized nighttime thermal curtain, which Baumans plans to install in the future.
The greenhouse is anticipated to conserve an approximated $10,700 in annual natural gas expenses compared to single-wall construction since of twin-wall technology. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon money incentive of $2,400 to help balance out the included cost.
Baumans has received more than $80,000 in Energy Trust rewards. “We take benefit of Energy Trusts offerings every opportunity we get. Rest guaranteed, well be doing more jobs in the future,” stated Bauman.
