Operating Instructions

Ventilation

The greenhouse features adjustable skylights to control internal ventilation.

• Adjust the skylights to various opening angles to create optimal air circulation.
• This helps sustain indoor ventilation and cooling, crucial for plant health.
• The ventilation volume is controlled by adjusting the gear position, offering 5-level adjustments for balanced temperature, air ventilation, and UV protection.

Door Operation

The innovative sliding door allows for seamless opening and closing, saving space compared to traditional hinged doors.

• Gently slide the door along its track to open or close.
• A lock can be added for enhanced protection (not included).

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Regularly clean the polycarbonate panels with mild soap and water to maintain light transmission. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Sealing: Periodically inspect the connections between the PC boards and the frame. Reapply glass glue if any gaps or leaks are observed to ensure water protection.
• Frame Inspection: Check the aluminum alloy frame for any signs of damage or loosening. Tighten any loose screws or bolts.
• Drainage: Ensure the drainage tank design is clear of debris to allow for effective water runoff.
