Myerstown, PA March 11, 2008 -- Solar Innovations, Inc., a custom manufacturer of residential and commercial greenhouses, conservatories, skylights, sunrooms, folding and sliding glass doors, walls, windows, and screens, announces the release of the new modular I-Beam Greenhouse Product Line.

After continuous research and development, Solar Innovations™ proudly announces the release of several new products suitable for a wide range of residential and commercial applications. Developed through Solar Innovations’ industry research and customer feedback, every detail within the new modular I-Beam Greenhouse was carefully configured and evaluated. With the resulting structure, Solar Innovations™ can meet any need, whether aesthetic or structural, bringing customers the finest greenhouse available worldwide.

Customers are able to choose from a basic, starter greenhouse to the largest institutional greenhouse depending on their needs. The basic two inch by two inch I-Beam rafter, coupled with a leading edge air and water performance system, creates the highest performing greenhouse in the industry, while maintaining a charming appearance. Although the new I-Beam system is reminiscent of greenhouses of yesteryear, it is the highest quality, technologically advanced product available in its category.

The finest I-Beam hobby greenhouses are available to those customers interested in utilizing a greenhouse smaller than 200ft². In order to minimize investment, without sacrificing performance, Solar Innovations™ offers a standard glazing option of 8mm polycarbonate with these units. Customers are able, at their discretion, to upgrade their glazing to 16mm polycarbonate to increase their R and U values and the overall functionality of the greenhouse. Adding footers and/or foundations later can create a permanent greenhouse, glazed with tempered glass, under most residential codes; please check your local codes before purchasing a greenhouse with this intent.

Residential and small commercial I-Beam greenhouse systems are available in lean-to and double pitch structures with either curved or vertical single pane glazing; hip and valley designs are also offered. Various polycarbonate options and insulated glazing are available at the customer’s request. Unique to the I-Beam system, Solar Innovations™ can accommodate six to eight foot spans without horizontal structural supports. Trusses and supports will also utilize the I-Beams to increase span and versatility of the structure.

Commercial greenhouses featuring the I-Beam system can incorporate spans limited only by substructure design options. These commercial greenhouses will feature Solar Innovations, Inc. designed trusses and gutter connect options, incorporating the last 10 years’ best technology into a hybrid design. Options from clear span and truss greenhouses to post system can be designed to meet each customer’s requirements and desired investment.

With each of Solar Innovations, Inc.’s greenhouse systems, customers can utilize an integrated substructure or basewall, whether supplied by other, or designed by SI. Solar’s uniquely designed clip system maximizes installer ease and long-term performance by limiting penetration of the condensation control system. The design also creates rigid connections limiting fasteners and brackets. The amenities provided by this and other Solar Innovations™ integrated systems create an installer and user friendly environment.
