Greenhouse base (optional accessory)
It is essential that every greenhouse is built on a firm and level base. Vitavia prefabricated steel
bases are available as an accessory for all Vitavia models. Matching coloured bases are available for
painted greenhouses. Using a Vitavia base will add an extra 12.5cm (5”) to the height of the
greenhouse.
Greenhouse Accessories*
A wide range of useful and labour saving accessories are included in the Vitavia Range. Shelving
and staging help make the most of the space within a greenhouse. Folding units are available, if
you want to grow taller plants. Extra roof vents and louvre side windows are also available together
with automatic openers that allow vents and louvre windows to open and close according to
temperature and down pipes can be fitted for the collection of rainwater.
Controlling the greenhouse temperature
Vitavia offers a range of equipment for measuring the temperature and humidity of the air to
enable the gardener to obtain optimum conditions for growing plants. (Cucumbers require a soil
temperature of 18°c in order to absorb water and nutrients; for tomatoes it’s 16°c)
*For full details of all the products in the Accessory Range, see the separate Vitavia information leaflet.
Glazing options**
Vitavia greenhouses are available with three glazing options :-
Horticultural Glass : the traditional glazing option.
Toughened, Safety Glass : no sharp edges; ideal when young children are around. Twin - wall Polycarbonate : retains heat, diffuses sunlight and reduces risk of scorch. Safe and virtually
unbreakable.
