The gable style has an internal truss that can accommodate a motorized nighttime thermal curtain, which Baumans strategies to install in the future.
Because of twin-wall innovation, the greenhouse is expected to conserve an estimated $10,700 in annual natural gas costs compared to single-wall building and construction. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon money reward of $2,400 to assist balance out the included expense.
