Greenhouse viewed from west entrance with black barrels
of water for heat storage. Styrofoam
shutters are stored on a rack at the upper left of the photo
and can be used to cover the glass roof
and windows to help conserve heat.
Greenhouse from east end showing doors to atrium and main
greenhouse. The atrium helps avoid loss
of heat when entering and leaving the building, as it may be
closed off from both the main building
and from the main area of the greenhouse.
The amount of heat entering the main building is
controlled by opening or closing the windows, the
door, the transom, and low vents between the main building
and the greenhouse. Ceiling vents also
control the amount of heat allowed to flow to the upstairs
area. Shown is the print making area.
