Product Information

Full details

This Greenhouse Insulation Fleece Kit is designed for gardeners with aluminium-framed greenhouses who want to maintain a more stable internal temperature, especially during colder months. Its primary benefit is reducing heat loss and mitigating damaging temperature swings, supporting plant health and growth. A minor caveat is that while the fleece is versatile, the included clips are specifically designed for aluminium frames. The kit includes heavyweight 30g white garden fleece for full greenhouse coverage, plus specialized clips to secure it, offering a straightforward way to improve your greenhouse's thermal performance.

FAQs

Can the greenhouse insulation fleece be cut to size?

Yes, the 30g fleece can be easily trimmed with scissors to match the exact dimensions of your greenhouse panels or any specific area you wish to cover.

Does the greenhouse insulation fleece allow light through?

Yes, the 30g fleece is designed to allow a gentle level of light to reach your plants, supporting photosynthesis while helping to maintain warmth.

Can the greenhouse insulation clips be reused?

Yes, you can remove the clips at the end of the season and use them again the following year. Store them with the fleece in a dry place.

Is the greenhouse insulation fleece suitable for seed germination?

The extra fleece provided in the kit is often used on seed trays to help keep temperatures stable during early growth, aiding germination.

Will the greenhouse insulation fleece fit a wooden greenhouse?

The fleece material itself will fit any structure. However, the included clips are specifically suited for aluminium frames and may not be compatible with wooden greenhouses. You would need to use alternative methods to secure the fleece on a wooden frame.

How should the greenhouse insulation fleece be stored after winter?

Once removed from the greenhouse, fold the fleece when it is completely dry. Store it in a clean, dry place, such as a shed or storage box, until the next season.

What is the weight of the fleece material?

The fleece used in this kit is heavyweight 30g garden fleece, providing good insulation properties.

Troubleshooting

Fleece not staying in place

Ensure the clips are firmly attached to the aluminium frame and that the fleece is tensioned correctly before securing it. Check if the frame is clean and free of debris where the clips attach.

Excessive condensation on the inside of the fleece

While the fleece helps reduce moisture buildup compared to solid coverings, ventilation is still key. Ensure your greenhouse has some form of airflow. You may need to temporarily open vents or doors on milder days.

Difficulty cutting the fleece

Use sharp fabric scissors for a clean cut. If the fleece is snagging, try a slightly different angle or a different pair of scissors.

Clips don't fit my greenhouse frame

The included clips are designed for standard aluminium greenhouse frames. If you have a different frame type (e.g., wood), you may need to source alternative fixing methods like ties or specific clamps.
