TECHNICAL CERTIFICATE of GREENHOUSE “DAISY”
DISCRIPTION
The greenhouse “DAISY” is designed to create the climate, which is productive to grow
horticultural crops on the garden plots.
The length of the greenhouse is 13’ (4m) width is 8.3’ (2.53m) and height is 7.2’ (2.2m) with
ability to extend length by 6.5’ (2m) the surface of the protected soil is 108 ft2.
The frame of the greenhouse is made of square galvanized pipe 1”x1” and it is assembled with
the studs, screws, nuts. The kit includes everything you need to assemble the frame and fasten
the covering. The foundation of the greenhouse is not obligatory to install but recommended.
The greenhouse is fixed on the ground by digging in to the ground special frame endings. For
fixing cellular polycarbonate to the greenhouse roof, galvanized steel strapping tape is used.
The greenhouse covering is completed on buyer’s request. To cover the greenhouse you need
a greenhouse frame is designed for covering with cellular polycarbonate 4 mm thick with a High
Density of at least 0.7 kg / m2. The greenhouse has two doors, one on each end and two vents.
Assembly instructions and operating rules
The greenhouse should be assembled and installed on the ground according the instruction.
The buyer should control the assembly quality if it is made by third person.
Self-tapping screws of mount structure should be tightened to contact the flat head of the
screw with the covering surface and hold it to the frame, but do not allow the extra rundown of
the screws.
Avoid installing the greenhouse closely to the buildings and trees. The melting snow or ice is a
potential hazard. The recommended distance is minimum 7ft.
The greenhouse is designed to endure the wind of less than 50mph.
There is no need to skin the greenhouse during the winter time for the greater parts of the
regions of Canada and USA. If the greenhouse in not looked after during winter, the customer
should determine the possible snow load or to skin the covering.
The limit snow load for the frame takes place when the weight of the snow blanket is
240 kg/m2 (120Lb/ft2) of horizontal ground surface. This limit snow load requires characteristic
snow load of the North snow region (according the classification of construction rules and
regulations “Loads and actions”).
For assembly, you will need: a 10mm wrench, a screwdriver with a PH2 attachment, a sharp
knife, a carpenter square, a level, a 7-10 m tape measure*, a ladder and protective gloves.
*Metric measuring tape needed! Cm/mm

For Polycarbonate positioning it is important that all cellular lines be located in a
vertical position (downwards). Be sure to remove the wrapping film from both sides of
the sheet. The manufacturer marks the work face (sunward) of cellular polycarbonate
with a certain mark (a color bar, sticker or other).
To prevent moisture from entering the polycarbonate open honeycomb and inside
the greenhouse, we recommend sealing the joint of polycarbonate sheets along the
entire length with a waterproof self-adhesive tape (dense tape or similar material).

10. INSTALLATION OF THE GREENHOUSE
10.1. Before starting work, you should carefully level the site on which the
greenhouse will be installed.
10.2. Dig holes or trenches sufficient in length and width under the lugs.
10.3. Set up the assembled greenhouse so that the lower end lintels are flush
with the ground and the lugs go deeper into the ground.
10.4. Cover the lugs with soil and press the ground down.
When lowering the greenhouse into a trench or pits, make sure that there is no
longitudinal distortion of the frame and no displacement of the tie straps from the
arches. After tamping the ground, make sure that the tie straps are not sideways
and are located along the arches. Adjust tapes if necessary.
To strengthen the greenhouse, you can use a wooden, concrete or brick
foundation.
To prevent moisture from entering the polycarbonate open honeycomb and
inside the greenhouse, we recommend sealing the joint of polycarbonate sheets
along the entire length with a waterproof self-adhesive tape (dense tape or similar
material).

- 16 -
ATTENTION!
The greenhouse has a sailing. Do not leave the greenhouse on unfortified ground.
When installing a greenhouse in a windy area, additional fastening to the ground with
improvised materials (rod, reinforcement, etc.) is required.
Do not install the greenhouse in close proximity (less than 2 meters) to buildings,
fences or walls.
The area where the greenhouse is installed must be flat, without significant
changes in ground level.
In winter, in order to exclude deformation of the greenhouse parts from the
effects of snow and wind loads, it is necessary to remove all sheets of cellular
polycarbonate from the arched part of the greenhouse (greenhouse roof) by
dismantling the tie straps. The advantage of removing the sheets for the winter
period is that snow gets inside the greenhouse, which, when it melts, enriches the soil
with useful minerals, protects it from desalination. The roof open for the winter
prevents a situation in which harmful insects crawl into a warm greenhouse with the
onset of cold weather, and in spring they eat young roots and sprouts.
If it is not possible to dismantle the sheets, it is necessary to reinforce the arches
from the inside with T-shaped wooden supports (made of a wooden bar with a cross
section of at least 50x50mm), placing them inside the greenhouse - one bar for each
arch. Wooden supports are not included in the set, they are made independently.
Depending on the climatic conditions and (or) the location of the greenhouse, the
buyer himself must assess the possible snow load and, if necessary, put supports or
remove snow from the frame.
Failure to comply with the above requirements is the basis for refusal to provide
warranty service for the product.
Install the greenhouse no closer than 2 meters to buildings, fences and fences.
When installing the greenhouse in a windy area, provide a rigid attachment to the soil
surface with the help of improvised means (rod, reinforcement, etc.). Do not expose
the greenhouse frame to excessive mechanical stress. Do not alter the design of the
product yourself.
