6 . VenTFrAMe AnGLe
The ventframe angle is 50” long with the ends cut out to fit between the two Glass Bars with
sliders .
Put the head of the bolt into the punch out in the glass bar (24” from the top), slide
the bolt up and fasten it to the ventframe on the bar . Make sure that the angle flanges are
facing toward the sidewall (down) and that it is pushed up against the side sliders (already
on the Glass Bar) . Do this for all of them .
(See Step 6 Detail, page 18.)
7 . GLASS BArS
Bolt on all the remaining Glass Bars . Make sure that the top and bottom is tight against the
ridge and base .
(See Step 7 Detail, page 19.)
8 . GuTTer
The gutter is also used as a spacebar . The gutter is located just below the curve approximately
54” up from the base
(The glass bar should be notched out for it)
. use #8 x 1/2” screws to fasten
the gutter to the glass bar
(Keep the gutter to the top of the notch)
.
(See Step 8 Detail, page 20.)
9 . rooF PurLIn (ChAnneL)
When installing the roof purlin, mark it out by measuring from the ridge . The roof purlin
should be located approximately 6” above the place where the curve starts
(See drawings
provided for purlin locations)
. In larger greenhouses, the purlin may be located about the center
between the ridge and the top of the curve . Always face the open end of the purlin up towards
the ridge so that it can be used for hanging baskets . every Glass Bar has notches punched out
so that the head of the bolts can be inserted and can slide up or down on the bar .
(See Step 9
Detail, page 21.)
10 . TAPe ALL GLASS BArS
Complete all taping with the 1/8” foam gasket .
NOTE:
Side vents need to be installed before
taping the bars
(See photographs, page 12.)
11 . FASTenInG / SeALInG The GreenhouSe To The WALL
Before you seal behind the ridge and end glass bars, square your greenhouse using the
3/4/5 method (see sketch)
. Sometimes the foundation is level but your wall is not plumb .
You may have to decide to pull the greenhouse
away from the wall or make your foundation off-
level . When your greenhouse is squared up, mark
the edge of the ridge on your wall and pull your
greenhouse away from the wall and seal behind it .
Push the greenhouse back to the wall and fasten
it with screws .
NOTE:
Sealing can also be done after
greenhouse is finished and before the vents are installed.
