Safety First
• Check the contents of the greenhouse packaging against the packing list and the required parts for your
model on page 4 and following.
Do not begin assembly if any parts are missing.
• Please read these
Assembly Instructions
completely before assembly and keep them in your records so you
can refer to them if you wish to add options or make repairs.
• The instructions in this manual lead you through each step in the assembly process. It is important for you to
follow them closely.
• We recommend that you use gloves during assembly.
• EcoGrow is not responsible for the misuse of tools or parts.
• If local building codes require permits or licenses make sure that they are acquired before beginning.
• Your Greenhouse should be securely anchored to the prepared foundation using the recommended
hardware.
• If you prepare a concrete foundation do not excavate and pour concrete in frozen ground.
• Exercise caution when lifting heavy assemblies.
• Do not attempt to assemble your Greenhouse in high winds.
• We recommend that you place your Greenhouse in a spot where it will receive direct sunlight and will be
protected from the wind as much as possible. The door should not face prevailing winds.
• When your Greenhouse is fully assembled examine it for sharp edges and trim with a razor knife if
necessary.
• Close all roof vents in high winds.
• It is important to clear your Greenhouse of snow in the winter.
• If you live in a hot climate, where outside temperatures exceed 46° C (115° F) in the sun or 36° C (99° F) in
the shade, this may cause the temperature inside the greenhouse to exceed 55° C (131° F). Such conditions
may harm your plants and will damage the greenhouse by warping structural profiles. In order to prevent
damage:
• Ensure good ventilation during hot days.
• Make sure that the temperature inside the greenhouse never exceeds 55° C (131° F) by providing a
shading screen, such as the Rion ShadeNet (available as an option).
Note:
EcoGrow is not responsible for any damage due to high temperatures.
