Palram Automatic Roof Vent Opener
Palram Automatic Roof Vent Opener

The Palram Automatic Vent Opener is designed to help control the temperature and humidity levels in your greenhouse. It helps to provide ventilation for any Palram Greenhouse and does so by opening and closing the vent automatically with changes in temperature. As the air inside the greenhouse warms, the vent gradually opens to allow the correct amount of airflow into the greenhouse until the optimal temperature is reached. The vent arm uses wax that expands and contracts with changes in temperature, which is how the mechanism is able to open and close. The Automatic Vent Opener therefore operates without the use of electricity. Suitable for all Palram greenhouses with opening roof vents and easy to install.

            Description

            Gardeners can be frustrated by the limitations of smaller greenhouses when trying to add to their growing area, either with new crops or when bringing in potted plants that need extra protection during the weeks of frost. If this is your concern, you might be happy to learn that the Palram 8x12 Balance Silver greenhouse features an increased width over more basic models on the market at eight feet. This extra size is indispensable, and allows for a set of double doors that make coming and going from the Balance a more enjoyable affair.

            This Silver model comes with a natural aluminium frame that creates clean and metallic lines throughout the structure. The Silver is popular among those who want the classic garden greenhouse look, but some customers may want to opt for a powder-coated finish, available in Green.

            Features

            A combination of transparent glazing for the walls and a 'frosted' twin-wall glazing for the roof panels are used to help produce the balanced environment needed for optimum growth. On one hand, transparent polycarbonate walls give clarity to the plants inside and have the classic greenhouse look. Meanwhile, twin-wall panels offer a greater degree of sun diffusion that creates a more even temperature for plants. Plants that may otherwise be in the shade for too long in a daily cycle will enjoy additional sunlight. Other spots in the greenhouse that have a habit of overheating and damaging plants will have a reduction in harsh and direct sunlight.

            What makes the 8x12 Palram Balance Silver truly special is its expanded width of eight feet compared to Palram's more compact models. This allows for a set of double doors, which are optimal for easy access when transporting large plants or equipment. A low threshold doorway in contrast to the rest of the galvanised steel base makes it easy to enter by wheelchair or push through barrows of soil. 

            The Balance keeps to the traditional and trusted greenhouse design of an apex roof, prioritising headspace for the full length of the structure. With a peak interior height of over seven feet, you are unlikely to need to worry about stooping over while tending to plants. This size is also ideal for anyone hoping to grow larger plants, such as tomatoes or strawberry bushes, without bumping up against any limitations. 

            To further the control of your greenhouse's temperature and humidity, the 8x12 Balance features two manually adjustable vents in the roof. Simply open this and pin the double doors open with the magnetic door catches included with your greenhouse to create a draft. While not using your greenhouse, these doors can be locked by padlock (not provided).

            Accessories

            Palram offers a range of possibilities for expanding your greenhouse's practical functions that is seldom seen in ranges at this price range. The Automatic Vent Opener requires no manual adjustment or electrical input to function. A wax cylinder inside the opener expands as the ambient increases to around 12-15 degrees celsius, and in turn causes the vent to start opening, thus cooling your greenhouse. This is an excellent way to maintain a moderate temperature within your 8x12 Balance, with minimal effort. 

            Other accessories can help increase your usable space. For example, one of our favourite accessories is the Heavy Duty Shelf Kit, which is easily installed on the wall of your Balance greenhouse and supports up to 40kg weight. Its modular design means you can add as many shelves as you like alongside one another in a seamless manner. This shelf can be easily removed and positioned elsewhere, but those especially concerned with portability might find a lot to love in the freestanding Steel Work Bench, which has two levels to provide ample room for storage, and an adjustable lower shelf.

            Additional Information

            Customers are expected to assemble their Palram 8x12 Balance Silver at home, and many find it is best to set aside a weekend and get help from a friend or two to have the best experience of putting your Balance together.
