Heat loss in greenhouses and indoor grow spaces forces gas heaters to work harder to maintain the temperatures crops need to thrive, increasing your utility costs. Installing thermal curtains, also known as heat-saving shade cloth, in your facility can reduce the burden on your heaters by acting as a thermal barrier between plants and the roof of your facility. When temperatures rise, this easy-to-install technology can also provide shade to your crops while reflecting away radiant heat, providing year-round cost savings and benefits to your grow operations.
The Agriculture Energy Savings Action Plan (AESAP) has cash rebates available to help offset the cost of installing shade cloth in your facility.
Shade cloth can offer many benefits to your facility, including:
