More About Sunshine GardenHouses
Thorough Air Circulation
The roof vent allows air to escape at the hottest point, the roof ridge. Cooler air enters the base vent, creating a chimney effect and circulating cool fresh air throughout the GardenHouse. The convenient Dutch door provides additional ventilation control and easy access.
Attractive and Durable Redwood Frame
The 2" x 2" clear grade, dried redwood framing is naturally resistant to insect and moisture damage. It resists warping in moist or dry environments. No protective treatment is necessary.Only second growth redwood is used in the GardenHouse, preserving old-growth redwood forests. The frame base is 2" x 4" plastic lumber made of 100% recycled plastic. It is impervious to rot, mildew and insects and matches the redwood frame's color.
No Foundation Required
Exceptionally rigid and lightweight, only the corners of a GardenHouse need to be anchored to the ground.
Assembles Quickly and Easily
Major components are panelized for an easy, sure fit. Panelized sections are joined by screws. A power screwdriver, a 6' stepladder and a tape meaure are all that's needed for easy assembly. The 6' x 8' model takes about 3-4 hours to assemble. Even the 8' x 12' model takes less than a day for a "non-builder" to complete.
Efficient Roof System
The optimum 45 degree roof slope transmits low angle sun in the winter and reflects high angle sun in the summer. This increases heat in the winter and reduces it in the summer. It also leaves lots of headroom and plant hanging space. The steep roof slope sheds snow in the winter and can withstand a snow load of 18 lb. per square foot.
Optional Benches
Specially designed matching redwood benches are available that run the full length of the GardenHouse. Benches are 21" deep for all models except the 8' x 12' model, which are 32" deep. They can be stacked to provide additional growing surface.
Convenient Packaging
The 6' x 8' kit is packed in four boxes; the 6' x 12' kit is in five boxes; the 8' x 12' kit is in seven boxes. Maximum weight of any box is 85 lb. and any one of the kits will fit into a standard size pickup truck.
