INSTALL END WALL FRAMING
Site variations and different methods for anchoring
greenhouse may require slight changes to these
instructions.
It is the responsibility of the owner/builder to
adapt these instructions as needed to adjust for these and
other differences.
INSTALLING END WALL FRAMING FOR OPTIONAL
HEATERS, VENT FANS, AND MOTORIZED SHUTTERS
(if equipped):
Optional accessories such as heaters, vent fans and
motorized shutter units are typically installed or attached
to end walls. Additional horizontal framing (included) is
installed
between
vertical end wall frame tubes to mount
most accessories. Spacing shown for end wall supports
on end frame diagrams may be too narrow for some
larger accessories.
Diagrams do not show framing for
accessories.
When framing end wall, consult installation instructions for
accessories (if equipped), or measure width of accessory
to accurately space and position end frame tubes. Consult
panel installation diagrams in Quick Start section
.
Before installing any greenhouse accessory, adhere to the
following:
• Consult end frame diagrams before installing accessory
horizontal framing.
• Consult diagrams in Quick Start section showing
polycarbonate panel locations and locations of
aluminum trim and profile
before
repositioning any end
wall vertical.
• DO NOT MOVE END WALL VERTICALS USED AT
THE SEAM OF TWO (2) POLYCARBONATE PANELS.
• Always consult installation guides that shipped
with accessory for additional precautions,
recommendations, and safety requirements.
•
All electrical work to be completed by a licensed
electrician and according to established codes.
•
For gas heaters, a professional, qualified service
technician must install the unit.
Complete these steps to install the accessory framing:
1. Based on the installation requirements and precautions
of the accessory, choose a location in the end wall to
mount the accessory, and cut a 1.5" x 1.5" frame tube
to the required length for framing.
2. Attach these horizontal frame tubes between the
vertical frame tubes (at required height determined
by instructions included with accessory) using angle
brackets.
