eArticle: Planning your home-attached greenhouse

Are you considering a home-attached greenhouse?

Attached greenhouses are a great option for those that want convenience. Since the greenhouse will be constructed next to your existing building, you will have easy access to water, electricity, and other utilities you might need while gardening. Many of our freestanding greenhouse customers go through the process of adding these amenities so they aren’t lugging around buckets of water or running long extension cords through the yard. Having immediate access to these types of utilities will make your greenhouse growing much easier in the long run.

Learn more about:
  • Site selection, ventilation options, and foundations
  • Structural considerations regarding ridge height, the existing attaching wall,  access doors, special infill sections and working with an existing concrete slab
  • Advice on how to attach your greenhouse, watertight building expectations and the important of trim board
