Palram Automatic Roof Vent Opener
Palram Automatic Roof Vent Opener

The Palram Automatic Vent Opener is designed to help control the temperature and humidity levels in your greenhouse. It helps to provide ventilation for any Palram Greenhouse and does so by opening and closing the vent automatically with changes in temperature. As the air inside the greenhouse warms, the vent gradually opens to allow the correct amount of airflow into the greenhouse until the optimal temperature is reached. The vent arm uses wax that expands and contracts with changes in temperature, which is how the mechanism is able to open and close. The Automatic Vent Opener therefore operates without the use of electricity. Suitable for all Palram greenhouses with opening roof vents and easy to install.

The Palram Automatic Louvre Vent Opener is designed to help control the temperature and humidity levels in your greenhouse. It helps to provide ventilation for a Palram Greenhouse with an additional side louvre vent and does so by opening and closing the vent automatically with changes in temperature.

The Automatic Louvre Vent Opener therefore operates without the use of electricity. Please note that the side louvre vent is an optional extra on this greenhouse, so you will need to add a vent to your order first if you also want to include an automatic opener.

            Description

            Too many greenhouses only provide a cramped interior space, hard to stand up inside, and causing obvious limitations for plants with taller stems. The Palram 8x12 Essence Silver greenhouse goes the extra mile in offering the room that amateur gardeners need to develop their plans for growing vibrant flower displays or wholesome vegetables. 

            Features

            A range of thoughtful design features to support this increased size are worthy of your attention. For instance, two manual vents are included in the upper panels of the Essence to better regulate the temperature and humidity of the greenhouse. Opening both vents at once is a remarkably effective way of creating a draught that cools the interior on a hot summer's day. 

            When accessing the Palram Essence, wide double doors with a low threshold doorway makes life easier. This is especially helpful for wheelchair users, or anyone entering with a wheelbarrow. If you would like to keep both doors open as you work, small magnetic catches at the bottom of the doors lock onto the frame and hold the doors in place. Built-in guttering that allows you to easily collect rainwater in a water butt will similarly improve your experience using the Essence, as will door handles that can be locked with the addition of a padlock already owned by the customer.

            Polycarbonate glazing can be seen as a second-rate alternative to glass, and it is true that polycarbonate is a less costly material than most glass. But it is worth considering a polycarbonate glazed greenhouse like the Essence in any garden where there is a risk of damage to your greenhouse, from ball games or stray branches. The strong polycarbonate glazing used in the Palram Essence is resistant to shattering, and is highly durable; it will not turn yellow or opaque over the years. Its 'frosted' quality is excellent at diffusing sunlight, keeping the worst of the sun off vulnerable plants and bringing more light to shadier patches of the greenhouse.

            This glazing is easy to slot into place in the greenhouse's frame when assembling. The frame is constructed from sturdy aluminium on a galvanised steel perimeter base for added stability. When walking into the capacious Essence for the first time, owners will also notice the additional support braces that provide improved stability to the wider scale of this model in the Palram range. 

            Accessories

            Many owners like to give their greenhouse more capacity for growing in different ways, or simply improving the experience of using the greenhouse. Palram offers a fantastic range of accessories that is worth exploring before placing an order for the 8x12 Essence Silver. We are taken by the Automatic Vent Opener, which uses a hidden wax cylinder that expands in heat and contracts in cooler weather, forcing open and pulling closed your vent.

            In the Essence, which has a more generous headroom than many other garden greenhouses, you might want to make the most of this extra height and consider adding Plant Hangers to your order. These simple items clip to your greenhouse's frame and are ideal for stringing up tall plants or hanging baskets. The Steel Work Bench or Heavy Duty Shelf Kit are also fantastic ways to increase the potential space for growing plants on different levels inside your greenhouse.

            Additional Information

            Customers are expected to assemble their Palram 8x12 Essence Silver greenhouse at home. Most find it best to set aside a weekend and ask a friend or two to help put the Essence together. Those who have some DIY experience will find the process more straightforward, but written instructions are included with your order and a short video from Palram shows just how easy it is. Your persistence will be rewarded with a high-quality greenhouse to last for years.

            This high quality is backed up by Palram in the form of a five-year warranty. Check the details of the manufacturer's warranty prior to purchase to make sure you know the full details regarding care and maintenance – all of which is minimal with the Essence greenhouse – should you need to use the warranty.

            Delivery

            ALL DELIVERIES ARE DELIVERED TO KERBSIDE OR DRIVEWAY. This product is delivered flat packed, direct to your home and is supplied with a set of instructions to support assembly.

            Booking Delivery

            Your order will be dispatched by the manufacturer Palram Applications. If you have ordered more than one item, they may arrive at different times.

            Our teams are working hard to ensure your order is delivered within the timescale indicated on the product page. For customers in certain areas (e.g. Scotland and Wales) the timescale may be slightly extended. Please note lead times are counted in working days (Monday – Friday) excluding Bank Holidays.

            Prior to Delivery

            With Palram products, you will be sent two text messages. The first message will inform you that your order is being processed.

            Please note that both elbec and Palram will be unable to supply any further information on your order during this timescale. 

            Upon Delivery

            Your order will be delivered kerbside or on your driveway. Due to health and safety, and insurance liabilities, the driver will not be able to take your goods to the back of your property but – upon request – may place the product at the side of the house if there are no access issues. This is to avoid risking damage to your property while delivering to an unsafe location. We will not be able to go through your property.

            We recommend against arranging for a third party to install the product before its delivery and checking that all parts are present, and we cannot be held liable for any third-party costs caused by delays.

            Specification

            Please note: all imperial measurements are approximate, and the Palram Greenhouses are made from metric measurements. We would recommend that the base is at least 50mm bigger in each direction.
