I am of the understanding that your GH was poly film covered. Due to some statements in your Book of Propagation and a recent thread about poly carbonate glazing, I have several questions. Keep in mind that I live in East Central Illinois.
1) Did you have any temparature control issues in your GH? In the GH itself or the water. (Pennsylvania is very similar to Illinois with regards to extremes of climate)
a) If so, do you think an in floor/slab radiant heating system would be an adequate alternative or better as a supplement to a standard forced air furnace? (Would be set up with a household water heater and recirculating pump)
2) What was the BTU of your furnace?
I have been looking at a 20x36 with a 100,000 BTU which the company assures me, knowing what my requirements are, will be adequate with a double layer poly film GH. Do you agree?
Looking for the voice of experience.
