In order to build a greenhouse with your own hands, you need a cellular polycarbonate. He is the best materials for construction. If you compare it with ordinary glass, then it exceeds it twice in thermal insulation properties. Through cellular polycarbonate, sunlight passes absentmindedly, providing uniform lighting.
In order to build a greenhouse yourself, you do not need a lot of knowledge. Today, there are a lot of stores that sell all the necessary materials for construction. Before buying, you first need to decide where your greenhouse will stand, what form it will be. If you build it with an asymmetric design, then it will be easier to assemble it. The back wall is stained in dark color and placed at the southern wall of the house. Also, if desired, you can choose a prefix greenhouse. With the correct installation of such a structure, you can save on electricity. There are still round greenhouses. They are called that because they have a round shape. They are hexagonal, octagonal and twelve -angle. But the only negative is that the air is poorly circulating. To correct this drawback, you need to make an additional window, window or outlet.
By installing a greenhouse with your own hands, you should know some “chips”. The roof taint is installed to the east-west. Another trick: it is often necessary to wash the glass, they have a large accumulation of dirt and dust that prevents the passage of sunlight. Using electric heating, provided that there is a thermostat.
Inside the greenhouse, from the north side, it is necessary to install polystyrene. It is also necessary to use heat-saving materials (wooden barrels of water and dark slabs for the floor).
Before starting construction, you need to choose the right place. The greenhouse should be in a prominent place. Also an important role, plays proper lighting and protection against cold winds. And therefore, it should be located from west to east. If you have a compost pit or a barn or another building, this will be the best option for the location of the greenhouse, since everything will be at hand. But if you have little space for construction, then the greenhouse can be combined with the wall of the house or with other buildings.
Additional heating made in advance, may hold the necessary temperature in the winter period. In hot weather, the greenhouse must often ventilate.
