Do you want to save the greenhouse from the snow? Simple advice from a professional ordinary Cottagers

Dear owners of suburban areas with greenhouses made of polycarbonate!

You already enjoy the first snow? I, as a resident of the Northwest Russian diverse, can pour. 😊

But the snow blanket is not only pleasing to the eye, reminiscent of the imminent celebration of the New Year and covers perennials protective layer. The precipitated snow can break through the covering greenhouses. Not to buy a new spring in the form of headaches cares about repair construction-nurse, I will describe in the article advice seasoned Setup wizard greenhouses - Vladimir.

❄ miser pays twice, stupid - three times

First, short of the construction of suburban buildings. In winter hardiness affect thickness polycarbonate sheet.

Wishing not to spend a lot of money, gardeners tend to buy the cheapest option - only 4 mm. Due to the economy we can find the gaps in the roof of the greenhouse every spring. After all, in the regions in which the roof is stored for the winter a lot of snow, it is wiser to choose a thickness of 6 mm, and better - 8 mm

.

Maybe it is easier just to establish robust construction every year than do repairs? Repair comes at a price and spend precious time summer resident.

❄ 20 minutes - one danger is eliminated!

Now, in November, it's too late to do one important thing. Remove all debris from the roof of the greenhouse. If next to your greenhouse growing shrubs or trees on the polycarbonate can be found leaves and branches. Remove it and sleep soundly 😊

It is not only in neatness. Any irregularities on a smooth polycarbonate sheet - a clue for snow. Uneven load Vladimir calls one of the reasons that the material cracks, and then - falls.

❄ Snow shovel clean the track, but not greenhouse polycarbonate

I woke up a man came on the morning frost. He sees priporoshit track again. Well, that snow shovel at hand. "Over there, in the corner of the barn stands. And at the same time and the greenhouse will walk properly! And more and scrape Present! ".

Good intentions are playing with the owner of the suburban area cruel joke. Solid edge shovel scratch polycarbonate. During the thaw in a microscopic crack in the water gets. And when the frost is coming back again, you know what happens for yourself: water, freezing, expanding. And crack creeps too.

It is better to use soft plastic brush and broom. The work will take a little time, but it will significantly reduce the risk of damage to the polycarbonate.

And finally, another tip from Vladimir:

at least sometimes throw away snow from the walls of a greenhouse. Drifts press on the construction not only from above but also from below, which is why there polycarbonate and deformation of the whole structure.

I wish you to make your buildings survived the winter (and weather forecasters promise of abnormally warm), no losses and even microscopic cracks. In our hands to protect the greenhouse!
