Greenhouses

Greenhouses include cultivation facilities with side walls and roofing. In the greenhouse a person can move freely, providing all work related to planting, planting, and plant care. In the garden areas are used three types of greenhouses, one-pitch, two-pitch and arched, which can be glazed and film.

Single-pane greenhouses are most often built with a glass roof facing south. It is practical to build a greenhouse directly at the brick, stone or concrete wall of a house or other building on the site. The walls of wooden structures are not suitable as a basis for a greenhouse. A natural elevation or a hill can also be used as a northern wall, for which a slope facing the south is made upright and the ground is faced with thick boards, round timber or brick.

Single-glazed greenhouse

In order to save building materials and heat, the greenhouse, if groundwater allows, is buried, the optimum depth of excavation is 80 cm. From the outside, the walls are covered with earth, arranging slopes for water drainage. Entrance to the greenhouse is located on the east or west side. If the greenhouse is intended for year-round use, a brick chimney is made under the shelves, and the stove is laid out in the end part of the greenhouse.

Glazed greenhouses from the bottom to the top in an overlap. At the same time, the bottom glass is laid so that the water freely slides off the roof. Double-skinned greenhouse consists of an aluminum frame, on which polyethylene film is stretched. The length of the greenhouse in assembled form is 400 cm, width - 210, height 187 cm. The greenhouse slopes should be oriented to the west and east. The film coating is attached to the frame by means of rubber gaskets with flat spring clips. The frame consists of tubes connected by brackets. To eliminate distortions and sagging film there are wire stretches. In the greenhouse there are two opposite curtain doors through which the building is ventilated. If necessary, you can fold the side of the film. Double glazed glasshouse is a metal prefabricated rectangular structure with a gable roof, two sliding windows and four swing doors. The useful area of ​​the greenhouse is 15 m2.Dimensions - 260 x 560 x 210 cm. Before assembling the frame it is necessary to prepare the foundation for the installation of the greenhouse. It is made of concrete, bricks or wooden beams, with a width of at least 10 cm and a height of 20 cm.

Arched film greenhouse

First, wooden boards are laid to fix the frame. Then, between the foundation and the lower strapping, the greenhouses lay a waterproofing from the roofing material and collect the parts, then proceed to glazing: the roof, sides, gables and doors consistently glaze. The gaps between the windows are covered with window putty, but the glasses in the grooves of the profiles do not cover - they must slide freely. Such a greenhouse is durable.

The arched film greenhouse in structure and form resembles a film tunnel 410 cm in length, 235 in width and 180 cm in height. The frame of this arched greenhouse consists of 5 arcs made of profiled duralumin alloys and connected by four longitudinal ties. The film is attached to the wireframe by wire, beginning with one of the ends. The collected greenhouse is installed and fixed with fixing pins. They are slaughtered in the ground through holes in the brackets. The lower free ends of the film are pressed to the ground by loose soil or some kind of load. For the winter, these greenhouses are recommended to disassemble and store in enclosed spaces.
