Hi all!

I recently bought a standard greenhouse from Costco (8*10, 6mm polycarb panels).

I live in zone 5 MA/NH border. I purchased this greenhouse due to its good reviews and roof load rating but I would really like to use an inflation blower to heat it (like the link below). So far everything I've seen is directed/designed for hoop house and 2 plastic sheeting layers.

Is it possible to add and seal a layer or sheeting over (or inside) the polycarb panels in order to use this heating method?

I am also looking at the possibility of a DIY build with wood – would what I am interested in doing be a better fit for wood framing rather than the greenhouse kit I purchased?

Any advice on greenhouse kits welcome as well!

    You could do this over the top of it, but you will have to make your greenhouse airtight, or close to it.

    Are you planning to try to grow year round, or just extend your season? If year round, what do you plan to use as your heat source?
