Setting the Trend for Greenhouse Peak Ventilation
OUR NEWEST GREENHOUSE ADDITION AVAILABLE IN MULTIPLES OF TWO OR MORE GUTTER CONNECTED.
NOT SUITED FOR ONE HOUSE BUYERS OR FOR EXTREME SNOW OR WIND LOADS. STRUCTURES
ONLY FOR AS LOW AS 2.00 PER SQFT FOR LARGE MULTI-HOUSE INSTALLATIONS. NORMALLY
NOT PURCHASED AS SINGLE HOUSE EXPANSION PLANNED.
Our newest addition to a great heritage of structures. To fit today's
demands for many regions of the world, the key to success is ventilation.
This quality product is an outstanding addition offering very cost effective
natural ventilation.
The square galvanized or round pipe steel material adds strength to the greenhouse, ease of erection, and adaptability to systems installation where multiple houses
are required.
In the past. efficient peak ventilation in greenhouse was only available on ridge peak
houses such as the Quality Plus. Then came gutter vent houses, but they leak,
and it is difficult to get good seals. Though claims of maximum ventilation
were made, we believe gutter vent houses cause more problems than they solve.
So, along came the Ventsetter which we now offer under our brand name.
Types of vents are optional. Some growers prefer totally open vent, some custom
closure, others use insect screen.
Vents are available in Polycarbonate and fiberglass, either manual or automatic.
Many installations start with open systems and add operating systems later.
Quonsetters can be connected to Ventsetters,
and bolt on conversions to fit your greenhouse or nursery needs.
A NOTE OF CAUTION: LIMIT THE NUMBER OF GUTTER CONNECTED VENTSETTERS
GREENHOUSES TO (4) HOUSE PER SECTION OR OTHER TYPES OF HOUSES WHEN YOU DEPEND ON SIDEWALLS,
GABLE END AND ROOF VENTING FOR YOUR NATURAL VENTILATION NEEDS, PARTICULARLY
IF YOU ARE USING INSECT SCREEN
Outside air entering the house through sides and ends and exiting through
the roof have a limited distance that the air can travel without creating
a temperature rise, turbulence, and increased humidity. This distance depends
upon outside air movement, sidewall height, density of crop, distance from
incoming air opening and exiting vents. Most important is the density of
Insect Screen which reduces air flow. USGR has years of experience under
many conditions, and can assist you in proper design to fit your needs.
Also please note side and endwall moveable siding is available, as most of our greenhouses structures, operating either manually or automatically.
This great greenhouse can also be designed for a variety of coverings. Many
start with Poly and convert
to Polycarbonate as profits
are made.
Also available with heating, air
conditioning, benches, and all state
of the art systems
for all sizes of greenhouses.
12 foot (3.66m) and higher sidewalls are available at extra cost for maximizing
ventilation.
