How to make a greenhouse of window frames with their hands

How business owner depends not only on what he is savvy and budget, but also from his ability to make his own. Greenhouse of window frames – quite practical, and are the minimum investments. Consider the stepwise algorithm of construction of such devices in their own lands. Do the Foundationthe base of the greenhouse must be done as wood frame well weigh, plus you need to cover the structure, and added other materials, whereby the weight will be even greater. Accordingly to your greenhouse of window frames are not damaged, and not subsided with time, to establish her own hands firmly and steadily, which will need to build the Foundation. Materials for building are different:

Brick – very reliable, but is not very cheap. If it is properly laid, it will last long enough. But he may be damaged from the constant temperature extremes or excessive moisture. At the same time, it is absolutely stable and sturdy enough wooden structure of the greenhouse he quietly kept. Stone is a durable material but very expensive. It is possible to install even polycarbonate greenhouse with metal housing. The basis of his durable and he copes with the impact of different weather conditions. If you take a raw stone, the price of the material will be much less. Wooden Foundation is characterized by its strength, it is also resistant but will not last too long. Literally up to eight years and would have to be replaced. But it is perfect for greenhouses, which make their hands. Concrete – tape version, made from cement. Reliable and durable. Will last for many years.



Based on the above, you decide which material to lay the Foundation for the greenhouse you acceptable. For the Foundation the soil should not be marshy or too wet, otherwise the greenhouse will subside in a very short time. Ideally, when under a layer of soil there is a layer of sand. If not there, do the following:

Clay fill with gravel, spread carefully, then pour the sand bed height 15 cm Check, order at least half a meter passed the ground water. For the arrangement of the strip Foundation need to dig a trench up to 50 cm depth. Make the formwork. The boards can be wrapped in plastic, so they are not "joined" to the cement. On the bottom place to enhance the rebar from wire or just the stones of fairly large size. Next, pour a mixture made from: cement, crushed stone, concrete.



It must be done in such a way as to completely fill the gaps.
Next, you need to remove the Board to make waterproofing with bituminous composition, roofing material and polymeric material. If the edges are formed sinus, drive them moistened with sand and tamp. It will take about three weeks (including complete drying of the Foundation). So count on these deadlines before you engage in the construction of the greenhouse.

To build robust greenhouse frame needs to be installed securely. The window frame must be installed on the Foundation and work them hard to fix with parts, screws, wooden wedges, nails or clamps. Greenhouse from old frames to build with their own hands in General is a snap. The main thing – to adhere to important rules of a simple construction.

It is arranged in the simplest way, as long as the slope was sufficient and water was able to drain without difficulty during and after rain.





Gable option roof much better, and regardless of the material that will be used for its construction. Billet frames stacked processed in a standard way, and nail them shut from the top ridge (wood or plastic). It is important that the surface be sealed, especially at the joints of glass with wood. Indeed, in the case of leaks in the grow room can create a hostile work environment, for example, the same mold or plant diseases.

If the walls of a greenhouse made from old frames, they perfectly blend with the polycarbonate. For example, in case of shortage of materials, which you prepare for the arrangement of the roof on the greenhouse, you can use polycarbonate or greenhouse film. Of course, it's not glass, but the properties inside the greenhouse microclimate will not be worse, if instead of glass is a different material. To make good greenhouse, don't have to do drawings, important to be able to make and be a savvy gardener. Upon completion of all work, from the laying of Foundation and ending a stretch film, double-check yourself, how well you all did.
