Greenhouses

To optimize growth in the greenhouse environment, you may find it useful to incorporate a variety of greenhouse accessories into your everyday use in order to regulate temperature, control humidity, provide water, accelerate growth and organize plants. Some of these accessories include important pieces of greenhouse heating equipment. Depending on a variety of factors such as product construction, plant needs and climate, your greenhouse may need heating in order to maintain a healthy temperature. If your greenhouse will be experiencing cooler nights and/or winter weather, heat derived from the sun will not be enough. Gas and electric heaters are the most common. The size and strength of your heater should coincide with the amount of space in your greenhouse, the needs of your plants, your climate, and your greenhouse's ability to insulate.

Important factors to remember when heating your greenhouse:

• Safety should always be your primary concern. Consider utilizing safety controls and/or automation tools to regulate your heater's use, like thermometers or thermostats. We have a variety of other greenhouse accessories to choose from too!
• Heating can easily become costly. Remember that proper insulation can dramatically reduce heating costs. Browse our full selection of climate control accessories to ensure you find the best one for your application.
• Heaters powered by gas or oil typically produce gases that may be harmful to some plants. Be sure your greenhouse is properly ventilated to prevent plant damage. For this reason, we offer a variety of ventilation systems.
• Grow lights may be utilized as an additional heat and light source if your plants require more than what is naturally available.
