TOP Koren 8 - 9.6 m Span


Characteristics:

Type suitable for changing weathers, like in desert regions: hot days – cold nights, hot summers-cold winters. This type combines gothic closed-roof gables with fixed roof-vent gables. These roof vents can be covered with insect proof nets and with roll-up curtains. Optionally, all gables can have roof vents. The advantage of the "Top Koren" model is the natural ventilation process inside the greenhouse. The hot air accumulated in the greenhouse is released through the roof vents when the roof curtains are open. When the temperatures are low the roof curtains are rolled down protecting the crop. In general, closed roof gables are installed at both extremes of the structure where the structure is ventilated through the side-wall openings and the roof ventilation less important. The fixed roof-vent gables are installed in the middle, combining both types of gables. The number of gables of each type varies according to the requirements of the client. The closed roof gables at the edges serve also to protect the roof-vents against strong winds.

The covering sheets for the roof are narrow due to the two small arches of the roof. This enables easy covering works and prolongs the life of the sheets. The shape of the arches enables excellent sun radiation inside the greenhouse. The side wall openings can be covered with insect proof net and roll-up curtains. This model is designed according to Israeli standards. It is suitable for any type of crop: vegetables, flowers, herbs, etc. It can be equipped with trellising supports, shading or thermal screen systems, irrigation devices, etc.
