Description

The Palram Canopia Essence 8' wide by 12' deep Greenhouse has a smart, clean and durable design with twin-wall glazing, double door entrance and plenty of features to bring you a top of the range growing space at a great price.

Included with the Essence is everything you need for setup including a steel base frame. Palram Canopia try to make assembly as easy as possible and this greenhouse boasts a simple slide-in glazing installation method and step-by-step easy to follow instructions.

Combined with the greenhouse are two manual opening roof vents to aid ventilation, humidity and temperature control. As well as a compact guttering system which channels water to a suitable water butt or container - letting you re-use the water to feed your plants and flowers.

Being able to withstand winds of up to 56mph and heavy snow loads, the galvanised steel base, aluminium frame and support beams create a highly stable, durable and strong shell. The frame is rust-resistant to provide a long life span while the polycarbonate glazing is "virtually unbreakable" and is specially designed to block harmful UV solar rays while still letting plenty of light through.

Great Size and Value

Had this greenhouse for a few months now - very happy for the size / price ratio. Took two of us about 10 hours to put it up (could probably do it quicker if you're good at flat pack furniture). Clear building instructions. Good quality materials. The polycarb panes rattle a little in the frame, and there are some draughts. But hopefully I can just use lengths of string or paracord pushed into the frames to add pressure behind the polycarb panes to fix this. Windows are nice and simple but the mechanism is a little flimsy. I should have upgraded to the auto-openers (will probably upgrade when/if these ones break). Gutters are a nice feature, but they clog up very easily. Make sure you factor in regular cleaning. we put our greenhouse against our garden fence which was a mistake. We are using a 1000L IBC water tank for thermal mass which fits snugly in one corner, and there's still space on top for seedling trays and things.

Nice Greenhouse

Even though it's early in the year I treated myself to this greenhouse, and with a bit of heating all systems will be go! before long. No-one will be disappointed with the build quality and I chose one or two accessories like the louvre window. Can't wait to get going.
