Save energy or create a consistent growing climate?
When it comes to greenhouse production, significant heating investments are often required to create a consistent growing climate. While costly, investing in heating to provide the most ideal growing conditions can help crops get closer to achieving their full yield potential. When weighing the cost of heating to the resulting improvements in crop yield, the benefits often make the investment a no-brainer. But what if there were a way to save on heating (and therefore energy costs) without compromising the growing climate in your greenhouse? Enter energy saving screens. With energy saving screens, you don’t have to choose between the two.
Do both with climate screens
Imagine a climate screen that can maximize incoming light, while helping to minimize heat loss. Now imagine that it also results in your crop thriving and your energy bill decreasing. Installing Ridder climate screens can make this vision a reality. These energy saving screens are a cost-effective solution to help your crop meet its yield potential while saving energy.
Energy saving screens are particularly great for crops that require extensive heating. These screens can save energy costs up to 47%. They do this by providing moisture-regulating properties and minimizing heat loss without altering the amount of light coming into the greenhouse. The qualities of the energy saving climate screens allow for the screen to provide different benefits during the day than at night. In the daytime, the screens let the most light possible in and help diffuse the light to provide a more consistent light environment within the greenhouse. At night, the energy saving screens really shine in preventing heat loss, therefore reducing energy costs.
