That dedication to sustainability has actually prompted Baumans to gradually purchase energy performance for more than a decade– cutting annual natural gas use by an approximated 55,000 therms and delivering yearly energy expense savings of approximately $42,200.
In 2015, when it was time to set up a brand-new greenhouse, Baumans connected to greenhouse supplier OBC Northwest, Inc. for an energy-efficient model made 100% of twin-wall polycarbonate. “Although its a big area with 2 bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature in the greenhouse remains rather continuous,” said Bauman. The greenhouses polycarbonate has a pigment that diffuses light, supplying exceptional light quality for plant development. Roof vents in each bay enable natural ventilation. The gable design 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 anticipated to conserve an estimated $10,700 in yearly natural gas expenses compared to single-wall building and construction. Baumans got an Energy Trust of Oregon cash incentive of $2,400 to assist offset the added cost.
Baumans has received more than $80,000 in Energy Trust rewards. “We benefit from Energy Trusts offerings every opportunity we get. Feel confident, well be doing more jobs in the future,” stated Bauman.
