Important Considerations

One of the keys of optimal growth is the ability to ventilate the greenhouse complex.  Motorised rack and pinion vents can be installed at the gable of the research greenhouse to give the growing environment the ability to maintain desirable temperatures without the use of mechanical cooling. Evaporative cooling systems are best utilised in vented research greenhouses. Different forms of heating and cooling systems can be installed to control the plant environment.  Reverse cycle systems work best for quarantine areas and evaporative cooling and gas heating work best for ventilated areas.  Ducting and disbursement grills ensure the heating and cooling is utilised to maximise their economic value. 

Environmental control systems gives you integrated control over the growing environment.  Computer systems operate all functions of the greenhouse rooms individually to give you versatility and a record of growing conditions for future reference and analysis.  Dial in to check your plants' environment and change the parameters with the touch of a button. 

Utilise thermal/shade screens to give your growing environment the best possible efficiency of your greenhouse heating and cooling.  Deploy your screen automatically at night to conserve heat as well as during warm sunny days to reflect outward a proportion of the incoming solar radiation.  Manual external shade screens are also useful in reducing the heat load. 

Quarantine Standards
Most research greenhouses require the cleanest possible environment, not only for optimal growth but also to meet the strict containment regulations research facilities demand.  Airlocks installed for PC2 quarantine requirements are fitted with the finest sealed architectural doors available. The Glasshouse Company Pty Ltd imports the finest quarantine mesh available on the world market.
