Last year, when it was time to install 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 consistent,” said Bauman.
Due to the fact that of twin-wall technology, the greenhouse is anticipated to conserve an estimated $10,700 in yearly natural gas costs compared to single-wall building and construction. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon cash reward of $2,400 to help offset the added cost.
