That commitment to sustainability has actually prompted Baumans to progressively buy energy efficiency for more than a decade– cutting annual natural gas usage by an approximated 55,000 therms and providing annual energy expense savings of around $42,200.
Last year, when it was time to install a brand-new greenhouse, Baumans reached out to greenhouse vendor OBC Northwest, Inc. for an energy-efficient model made 100% of twin-wall polycarbonate. “Although its a large space with two bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature level in the greenhouse remains rather constant,” stated Bauman. The greenhouses polycarbonate has a pigment that diffuses light, providing outstanding light quality for plant development. Roofing vents in each bay enable for 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 anticipated to conserve an estimated $10,700 in annual natural gas expenses compared to single-wall building and construction because of twin-wall technology. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon cash incentive of $2,400 to assist offset the included expense.
Baumans has gotten more than $80,000 in Energy Trust rewards. “We take benefit of Energy Trusts offerings every opportunity we get. Rest guaranteed, well be doing more jobs in the future,” said Bauman.
