Greenhouse Winter Heating Options




Winter is here and it's time to start thinking about heating your greenhouse.


There are several inexpensive options to chose from:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1) Solar Air Heaters by Solar Infra Systems. This can not be the primary heating source if your temperatures are falling below freezing at night.
The solar air heaters only work during the day in partial and full sun.
Solar Infra has a great indoor-outdoor mount that's 24"x36"
Retails from $399 and up.


2) Portable Electric Heaters. We highly recommend the Patron E1.5 model.
The commercial grade heaters are designed to run for 10 years with a break!
Features a 116 CFM fan motor which distributes warm air throughout the room.
Powder-coated durable steel housing / BTU/Hour: 5,100 / Watts: 1,500
Retails from $239 and up.


3) Using the sun to warm your Greenhouse is an option depending on your geographic
location. With proper insulation this may keep your plants above freezing.


4) Either option you choose, you will need to insulate your Greenhouse.
See our previous Blogs on How to Winterize you Greenhouse.


Of course you could go Geothermal,  Wind Turbines, Portable electric baseboard heating, Wood Stove etc. These would be a tad more expensive.
