Greenhouse restoration made of polycarbonate and the use of PENOPLEX® thermal insulation
Increasing the yield of vegetables in the greenhouse is one of the main goals of the gardener. In our country, most of the territories are occupied by areas with a zone of risky farming, with periodic soil freezing. The soil temperature changes depending on the weather, especially in the spring, when unexpected frosts and then thaws can come.
Even at positive temperatures, with the onset of warmth, gardeners are in no hurry to transplant vegetable seedlings into the greenhouse and sow greens. The soil in early spring is still not warmed up, because it heats up much slower than air.
Greenhouses made of polycarbonate with warm beds in a PENOPLEX® box
To protect the next season's harvest from the cold, start planting early in 2021 and get more vegetables and herbs, you can equip a polycarbonate greenhouse with a warm bed, which is prepared from slabs PENOPLEX® in the form of a box.
The warmth in the greenhouse will remain
A bed in the form of a box, which is made with thermal insulation, will make it possible to plant crops in early spring and later end the growing season in the autumn. In a warm bed in the form of a box, the soil will be safe from recurrent frosts and cold weather.
Installation or restoration of a greenhouse using a warm bed in the form of a box
How is the restoration or installation of a greenhouse with a warm bed in the form of a box made of PENOPLEX FUNDAMENT® plates:
1. You need to dig a pit 30-40 cm deep.
2. Install a timber foundation in protective soil and a frame (depending on the type of greenhouse).
3. Place the PENOPLEX FUNDAMENT® slabs in the base of the pit.
4. Place the slabs vertically so that they are located along the walls in the pit.
5. Fill the box with nutritious soil.
6. If necessary, you can build a blind area or dumping along the perimeter of the structure from the outside.
Advantages of a warm bed-box made of PENOPLEX®
• The PENOPLEX® heat-insulating material is protected from the multiplication of pathogens and molds harmful to human health.
• PENOPLEX® thermal insulation is safe and environmentally friendly for crops, as it is made from safe raw materials, the latter is also used for the manufacture of medical devices, food packaging and toys for children.
• Due to the low coefficient of thermal conductivity of PENOPLEX®, the temperature difference will be minimized, heat losses will be reduced and a reliable protection against cold will be created.
• PENOPLEX® boards do not absorb moisture, so they will not change their high-quality characteristics for fifty years or more.
• Warm beds of PENOPLEX® will save gardeners money and give more time to rest.
