Open roof greenhouses give a environment for plant growth when the outdoor weather conditions is suitable and an artificial environment when it’s too hot or cool. Opening the roof over the plants increases light intensity that may help to control the growth habit, flowering and crop timing. In addition, it reduces electricity costs as expensive lover cooling is not needed.
Several methods are used to open up the roof. Some producers make a roof that opens by rolling up the solitary or double coating of flexible plastic-type material glazing that operates the length of the greenhouse bay. A little gear motor rotates a shaft that winds the plastic material on to it like a window shade. A light, second framework over the 
structure secures the plastic-type material from bellowing out during windy weather. Opening and closing the roof can be either manual or automatic. Each part of the roof can be controlled independently for flexibility in cooling.
Folding roof greenhouses work very well in snowy climates as they can be tightly closed during cold weather. Most designs use standard vent hardware. Some possess panels that hinge at the gutter and open up upward. Opening is nearly 100%. Others possess panels that are hinged at the ridge and one gutter and slide sideways on teflon Gearbox For Greenhouse bearings. Opening is approximately 85%. Most designs make use of rubber gasketing to seal the joints. Glazing could be cup, polycarbonate or film plastic material. Some manufacturers give a movable gutter to gather rainwater when the roof is certainly partially open up. Wind sensors ought to be set up to close the roof in stormy weather. Movable shade is generally installed with the open roof design. It reduces heat load by reflecting the suns rays back again out. The shade curtain ought to be of a porous style to allow heat to escape. In northern climates an energy blanket can also be installed to lessen heat loss through the winter.
These structures consist of a steel frame, versatile glazing and cable support. Woven UV stabilized polyethylene film creates a watertight glazing. Based on the cropping program, bracing of the framework could be external cables mounted on deadmen, inner compression braces or trusses with cable X bracing. Flat roof designs are utilized where there is small rainfall or snow. A-roof designs shed the rain and snow to an interior gutter system. Styles that may carry up to 35 lb/sq ft snow load and 100 mph wind loads are available. The roof opens in sections by moving the leading edge of the curtain. One equipment motor will handle up to 50,000 sq ft of roof Heating is more difficult than in a conventional greenhouse because of the single layer plastic-type material and higher infiltration through gaps and cracks in the seals.
