The greenhouses polycarbonate has a pigment that diffuses light, providing exceptional light quality for plant development. Roofing system vents in each bay enable natural ventilation. The gable design has an internal truss that can accommodate a motorized nighttime thermal drape, which Baumans plans to install in the future.
The greenhouse is anticipated to conserve an approximated $10,700 in yearly natural gas costs compared to single-wall construction since of twin-wall innovation. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon money reward of $2,400 to assist offset the added cost.
