The greenhouses polycarbonate has a pigment that diffuses light, providing outstanding light quality for plant development. Roof vents in each bay permit natural ventilation. The gable design has an internal truss that can accommodate a motorized nighttime thermal curtain, which Baumans strategies to set up in the future.
The greenhouse is expected to save 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 cash reward of $2,400 to help offset the included expense.
