Greenhouse AccessorPlant Hangers
Aluminum Tube Hanger A fixed aluminum tube runs the length of thegreenhouse at eave height. The tube is attached at each
bay with a clip and can be painted to match the framefor an additional charge.
Sliding Plant Hanger A unique system that consists of a metal bar withindividual carriers inside the bar. Each carrier haswheels which allow the gardener to slide hanging
baskets left and right.
Decorative CornerCast aluminum plant hangers with a historicallyinspired, ornate design. This plant hanger is meantto be noticed and painted is to match the structure’sframe. Each corner typically holds one hanging
basket.
Aluminum Truss
This structural support truss is specially designedinto the greenhouse frame and can be used as a planthanger, as they are able to hold heavy plants. Multipletrusses can be designed into greenhouses for largecollections of hanging baskets.
Ring and CollarRing and collars are a historical accessory often usedfor decorative and/or structural purposes. They areoften accented with an applique, painted to match
the frame finish, and can span the width of thegreenhouse.
Single Pant HangerIndividual o-hooks are inserted into the rafter screwtrack. Each hook holds one hanging basket and doesnot penetrate or create holes in the frame.

Greenhouse Accessor
Pleated Gravity Fed Shades
These shades can be used on both the roof andwalls. When positioned in a roof the shades willuse a Roman fold style. If placed in the wall theshades can be flat mounted on a roller or Romanfold. This system is typically used on slopedroofs. The shades are mounted to the interior ofthe glass roof, and a manual pull or motor movesthem up and down. Shades are individually sizedto fit between each rafter section. Numerouscolors and openess are available.
Wide Span Horizontal ShadeThis option spans horizontally across the eave ofa greenhouse. Shades are mounted directly to theeave. The blinds are designed in a Roman foldstyle. When extended they allow heat to be heldabove the system in the ridge, while the growingspace remains cooler. On cool winter days, theshades can be retracted to allow sunlight and
heat into the structure. Varying fabrics, types,colors, and openess are available with manual ormotorized operations.
Shading Options
Greenhouse Shades All shades for a greenhouse are built for highmoisture areas and are water resistant. Theshade materials are also bacteria and fungalresistant. Each type of shade system is suitablefor residential and commercial greenhouses. Asa rule of thumb, a greenhouse shade should bearound 25% open. Lower openesses are suitablefor low light plants and orchids.

Solar Innovations, Inc. in-system skylights are capable of being installed on any structure, including greenhoussunrooms, pool enclosures, and conservatories. This type of ventilation is also available on traditionally construcroofs consisting of shingles or standing seam. Function is similar to a ridge vent, but the skylight has a higher prRidge vents are for structures with pitches not used below 3/12, and the operable skylight can be used on lowerpitches. As hot air rises, it becomes trapped in the ridge line. The skylight will open, and release the stagnant aiThis system is ideal for shallow pitched roof lines. Skylights can be manually operated or feature a motor. Multipbays can be synchronized to open at the same time.

Glass structures need ventilation, be it agreenhouse, conservatory, or pool enclosure.Without proper aeration, the structure willoverheat in warm weather. The space essentiall
becomes a unbearably hot, large glass box, ifproper ventilation is not supplied. Both ridgevents and eave vents can be set to automaticalopen when a specified temperature is reached.
Solar Innovations, Inc. offers two options: ridgeand eave vents. As hot air rises, it becomestrapped in the structure’s peak and needs toescape. The ridge vent will open, either manualor motorized and release the air. Ridge vents can
be a single bay or feature multiple bays that are
all connected.
The eave vents (or sashes), are located on thestructure’s walls and will also open. This willallow cool, fresh air to be brought into thestructure. The air will circulate through the roomand lower the temperature. This will make theroom far more comfortable and help to reduce tspread of diseases in greenhouse plants.
Venting Features• Temperature based operation• Water resistant motors• Units close vents when rain or snow is
detected• Timed and grouped operation of multiple
vents.

Greenhouse AccessorCirculation Fans
Circulation fans are needed in a greenhouseto grow healthy plants. Stagnant air breedsdiseases; the use of circulation fans cuts downon the spread of fungi and pests. After wateringthe leaves of plants they become moist and
combine with warm temperatures, diseases willgrow. Circulation fans help to dry plants quickerand reduces pests. A greenhouse can have hotand cold pockets of air that circulation fans helpto eliminate by combining all the air inside thespace.
Two fans are typically used in a greenhouseand placed in opposite corners (see diagrams
below). Various sizes are available depending ongreenhouse dimensions.

Riser Misting System A riser misting system is designed for flexibility. Thesystem is mobile; if you change your greenhouse
configuration often, this system may be your bestchoice. Risers can be placed in any given location on the
benches. A mist is sprayed over the top of the riser andat any time, can be relocated to a different area.
Drip Misting SystemThe drip misting system is used for slow water release.This system is great for gardeners who travel frequentlyor have busy schedules. A plastic hose runs the lengthof your bench, drip tubes are attached to the hose andsupply individual plants with slow and steady drips ofwater. Holes can be filled and the tubes rearranged if
necessary.
Polyrail Misting System A polyrail misting system is well suited for largeexpanses in a greenhouse. Rolling benches are oftendesigned to use the system. There are vertical stakes ineach rail, that run the length of the benches. The watersupply is located within these rails. Nozzles are insertedinto the water supply and a fine mist is brought over theplants.
Suspended Misting SystemThe suspended misting system is elevated above
benches to provide maximum bench space suspendedfrom the rafters. The system runs the length of the
benches, suspended from a jack chain. Nozzles are againinserted directly into the water supply. This system can
be positioned at virtually any desired height.
Jet Fog MistersJet fog misters are used for both watering and humidity.This system is typically mounted at the eave line andsprays a fine mist. Greenhouses with delicate plants,
like orchids, operate efficiently with the fine mists.Timing and frequency can be automated.

HumidifiersHumidifiers are used in greenhouses to bringmoisture into the air. Many plants requirehigh levels of humidity; for example, orchidsneed 60-80% humidity, depending upon the
variety. Many tropical or ornamental plantsalso require humidity levels in the range of50-60%. Solar Innovations, Inc. offers a lineof humidifiers that will be sized to fit yourgreenhouse; from a small hobby house, toa large research facility. All humidifiers aremounted to the roof and atomize water into avery fine mist.

Evaporative Coolers A greenhouse has the potential to overheatin summer, even with ventilation. In orderto preserve the plants, cooling need to be
incorporated. Solar Innovations, Inc. recommenan evaporative cooler which reduces temperatuand adds humidity to the greenhouse.
The evaporative cooler draws air over a wet pad by way of a fan. As the water passes over thepads, it evaporates and takes heat with it. The aithen passes into the greenhouse and can be up t30°cooler.
Evaporative coolers consume ¼ less energy thantradition air conditioners, which translates to
lower utility bills.
Evaporative coolers exchange air; rather thanre-circulating stagnant air; a benefit forgreenhouses which need fresh air to combat pesand disease.
Each unit is vented to the outside, with thephysical unit also being located outdoors. Theunits exterior is a neutral tan, blending easily wthe building’s facades.

Greenhouse AccessorCold Frames
Cold FramesCold frames are used to extend the growingseason. Plants can be grown in the frames
during early spring and late fall. The framingis made of aluminum which will not rot orswell like traditional wooden cold frames.The protection of the insulated glass capturesheat for young seedlings. During summer the
lids can be lifted and plants grown directlyin the soil. Plants like figs and caladiums,when wrapped with insulation, can often beoverwintered in a cold frame.
