Automatic Greenhouse Vent Opener With Temperature Control
The temperature controlled greenhouse opener can be adjusted to begin opening between 17°C and 25°C. At around 30°C it will fully open to a maximum of 45cm, depending on adjustment and load. The self-opening greenhouse vents ensure air circulation happens naturally without the need to check the greenhouse throughout the day.
Solar Powered Greenhouse Window Opener For Easy Ventilation
This solar powered greenhouse window opener uses the power of the sun to function, meaning no wiring or batteries are required. It is made from aluminium zinc coated steel and has an opening force of 7kg, making it strong enough to operate efficiently in daily use. We also have a heavy duty version for heavy windows and it also opens greenhouse doors.
Wax Filled Piston In The Greenhouse Ventilation System Opener
Inside the automatic greenhouse opener is a wax filled piston cylinder containing a special wax and oil mixture. As the greenhouse warms, the wax expands and pushes a piston rod outward. This movement drives the arm that opens the window. When the temperature falls, the wax solidifies and contracts, pulling the piston back in. Springs or the weight of the window then close it, creating a self-regulating ventilation cycle.
