  4. DO NOT climb or stand on the roof. Heavy articles should not be leaned against the greenhouse.
  5. Keep the roof and gutter clear of snow, dirt & leaves. Allowing snow to build up on the roof may damage the product.

Functions and Features

  1. The strong two-part eaves beam includes an integral gutter. Downpipes are also included as standard so you can collect rainwater.
  2. Manual window handles are included as standard with the roof vents. If required, automatic roof vent openers are available as an inexpensive optional extra.HOWE-AM945-Polycarbonate-Greenhouse-Double-Swing-Doors-fig-1 \(5\)
  3. Remove approximately 2 inches of film from all sheet edges before installing and remove all film immediately after the construction is completed. Please ensure that the side with the white film faces outwards.
  4. This quality greenhouse features self-tapping screws to provide strong joints. As the name suggests, the screws tap their thread. Driving with self-tapping screws requires more force than conventional screws. A powered screwdriver is therefore recommended.
  5. Nuts are not to be tightened before the end of assembly! Unless otherwise stated, do not tighten the bolts/nuts/screws until the shed is finally erected!
