Retractable Roof Greenhouses

With all the trapped heat and energy in greenhouses, retractable roof greenhouses enhance the cooling effect. A ventilation system is not big enough to exhaust heat as quickly as greenhouses take them in. Retractable roof greenhouses take trapped heat out of the equation.

When paired with an energy curtain system, retractable roof greenhouses have the ability to trap heat while the roof is closed, providing protection from freezing wind, snow and hail. There are three types of curtain systems that will help keep your structure at optimal growing temperatures:

• Interior curtain systems that are custom designed to be installed inside greenhouses manufactured by others
• Interior/ exterior curtain systems that are designed to be installed inside greenhouses with roofs that retract or open
• Exterior curtain systems that are installed above greenhouses

The retractable flat roof greenhouses are an affordable way to protect rain tolerant crops from excessive heat, cold, and wind. There is a wide variety of water porous roof coverings and structural designs that allow for the optimal balance between crop requirements, environmental conditions, and the level of investment. This style is best suited for tropical/semi-tropical regions with arid dry conditions.

The retractable A-frame greenhouse is designed for heavy snow and wind loads and has spans that match up with most standard house widths. A-Frame roofs protect plants from excessive cold, rain, wind, snow and heat.
