Rounded arch greenhouses trap snow at the crown where the curve flattens, creating dangerous accumulation. In heavy snow climates, this is the single most important structural difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the frame made from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHot-dip galvanized steel — permanently bonded zinc coating that protects against rust for 15+ years. Not painted steel. Not coated steel.

The twin-wall panels provide good insulation. A small 1,500W electric heater with a thermostat maintains growing temperatures through most US winters. The narrower 8'10\" width means less volume to heat — lower heating costs than wider greenhouse models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long do panels last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10+ years.
