SHELTER CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Proper care and maintenance of the shelter is important.
Check the following items periodically to properly maintain
the shelter:
• Regularly check the cover or covers to see that these
are tight and in proper repair. Tighten and adjust the
tension as needed to prevent damage and wear.
• Check connections and all fasteners to verify that they
remain tight and in good condition.
• Check the polycarbonate panels (if equipped) to verify
that these are secure and in good repair. Verify that
nothing is touching the panels that may cause damage.
• Do not climb or stand on the greenhouse at anytime.
• Inspect the anchoring system to verify that all
components remain tight and in good condition.
• Verify that the curtain components are in good working
condition.
• Do not allow drop-down curtain to remain in the down
position for extended periods. Raise the curtain to allow
it to dry and for cleaning.
• Replace cords (used to raise and lower curtain) and
anti-billow rope immediately if worn or broken.
• Remove debris and objects that can accumulate on the
greenhouse. Use tools that will not damage the cover
when removing debris.
• Remove snow to prevent excess accumulation. Use
tools that will not damage the cover when removing
snow.
• Check the contents of the shelter to verify that nothing
is touching the cover that could cause damage.
• If the shelter is dismantled and moved, inspect all parts
and connections before using.
• Depending on the contents, construction of the shelter,
shelter materials, and shelter location, the potential for
condensation exists. GrowSpan™ offers several items
that can be used to alleviate a condensation condition.
Please contact a GrowSpan™ representative for
additional information.
• For replacement or missing parts, call 1-800-245-9881
for assistance.

down curtain at one corner of the shelter and align it

4. Using wood screws and washers, secure the top of
the wind panel to the ribbon board. Space the screws
every 12" along the top of the panel.
