That commitment to sustainability has prompted Baumans to gradually invest in energy performance for more than a years– cutting annual natural gas use by an approximated 55,000 therms and providing annual energy expense savings of roughly $42,200.
In 2015, when it was time to set up a brand-new greenhouse, Baumans reached out to greenhouse supplier 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 remains quite constant,” said Bauman. The greenhouses polycarbonate has a pigment that diffuses light, offering exceptional light quality for plant development. Roofing vents in each bay enable natural ventilation. The gable design has an internal truss that can accommodate a motorized nighttime thermal drape, which Baumans strategies to set up in the future.
The greenhouse is expected to save an estimated $10,700 in yearly natural gas costs compared to single-wall building and construction because of twin-wall technology. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon money reward of $2,400 to assist offset the added expense.
Baumans has gotten more than $80,000 in Energy Trust incentives. “We benefit from Energy Trusts offerings every opportunity we get. Rest ensured, well be doing more jobs in the future,” stated Bauman.
