Dear Customer!
Thank you for purchasing one of our greenhouses. We feel sure that by following the detailed as-
sembly instructions, you will find as much pleasure in constructing the greenhouse as you will en-
joy growing plants in it. The assembly instructions are a combination of text and illustrations and
no technical knowledge is required for the erection of the greenhouse. The frames are numbered
and packed separately corresponding to the pages in the assembly instructions.
Assemble one section at a time. Bolts and various fittings for each section are included with each
pack. Each pack has a specified list of components.
We have attempted to make the greenhouse as strong as practicable but it still requires
protection from strong winds. The best shelter is a semi permeable one where the wind is
filtered but not completely stopped. Beware of situating your greenhouse between solid
objects as they tend to funnel the wind. A sheltered greenhouse will be much more efficient at
retaining heat.
Guarantee
There is a 10 year guarantee that covers replacement or repairs of defective frame parts due to
material or a manufacturing fault. The guarantee is limited to replacement of the faulty parts and
does not cover assembly costs, post and packaging or freight etc. The polycarbonate has a 7 year
guarantee. Should a fault with the polycarbonate arise it is replaced on a pro-rata basis. This means
for example if the polycarbonate was to fail in 3.5 years we would replace half of it free of charge,
the customer is charged for the other half. The guarantee is invalid if the greenhouse is not assem-
bled according to these instructions. The guarantee does not cover wind, snow and storm damage or
other natural disasters.
Winter Protection
Our greenhouses are constructed with frame dimensions up to 50% stronger than competing prod-
ucts. We still recommend you protect your greenhouse during the winter if you are expecting heavy
snow or high winds.
●
Support the roof ridge at the centre of the greenhouse if expecting heavy snow.
●
Don’t let snow build up on the roof.
●
Site your greenhouse so snow can’t fall from trees or nearby roofs onto your greenhouse.
●
Lock the door and windows to prevent wind damaging the greenhouse.
Foundation
The base is included with the greenhouse. All bases are powder coated to protect them from ground
salt corrosion even if your greenhouse is mill finish. The base is maintenance free and, of course,
all fittings are included. Remember to order concrete as this is not included in the kitset. Premixed
bags of standard concrete or rapid set (just add water) are available at your local hardware store.
Maintenance
●
Grease doors, hinges and door track.
●
Clean the gutter for leaves etc.
●
Check adjustment of windows.
●
Replace any damaged polycarbonate.
●
Wash the polycarbonate with a warm soapy solution. Do not use solvents.
●
Clean the greenhouse with disinfectant before and after the growing season.
