ISHS Acta Horticulturae 245: Engineering and Economic Aspects of Energy Saving in Protected Cultivation

PREFABRICATED DOUBLE LAYER GREENHOUSE GLAZING PANELS

Authors:   R.A. Aldrich, J.W. Bartok Jr
Abstract:
Five fabrication systems were developed for securing a double layer of DuPont Tedlar® film to frames for use as greenhouse glazing panels. The objective was to develop systems for on-site fabrication by greenhouse operators. Panels were used to glaze a small lean-to greenhouse and one-half of a commercial size research greenhouse. Heat shrinking was used to produce a taut surface.
