How many windows does the greenhouse have?
The greenhouse features six windows for ventilation.
What are the dimensions of the polytunnel?

Is the frame made of metal?

How should I anchor the polytunnel?
It is crucial to anchor the polytunnel securely to the ground using stakes, weights, or a suitable anchoring system, especially in windy areas. Ensure the ground is level.
Can this polytunnel withstand heavy snow?
While the galvanized steel frame is strong, heavy snow accumulation can put significant stress on the structure. It's recommended to clear snow regularly or provide additional support during heavy snowfall.
How do I clean the polytunnel cover?

Troubleshooting
Polytunnel cover is loose or flapping
Ensure the PE cover is pulled taut over the frame and securely fastened using all provided ties or clips. Check and reinforce the ground anchoring system.
Condensation inside the polytunnel is excessive
Increase ventilation by opening more windows or the roll-up sides (if applicable) during warmer parts of the day. Ensure adequate airflow.
Frame appears unstable
Verify that all frame components are correctly assembled and tightened. Ensure the structure is properly anchored to the ground. Consider adding additional weights or stakes.
PE cover is torn
Small tears can often be repaired with specialized greenhouse repair tape. For larger tears, consider replacing the cover section or the entire cover.
