Riga Shade Cloth Kit

All Riga Greenhouse Shade Kits will be fabricated from 50% ALUMINET Shade Cloth with heavy-duty reinforcing tape sewn along all four edges and brass grommets installed every 2′ around the perimeter for easy installation using rope or bungee cords.

Aluminet

ALUMINET reduces heat load in the greenhouse. Because of the highly reflective nature of this shade cloth, radiation is reflected away from the net. The plants and floor give off invisible heat radiation at night. ALUMINET reflects this radiation back to the plants maintaining warmer leaf temperatures. It also provides for more diffused light which is beneficial to your plants.

Dimensions

Select the desired shade cloth size from the Riga Greenhouse configurations listed in the drop-down box above. To allow proper roof coverage, pieces for 7’8″ wide greenhouses are 14′ wide by the length of the selected model. Pieces for the 9’8″ wide greenhouses are 16′ wide by the length of the selected model.

Instructions for Use

Shade cloth can be field cut with a sharp pair of scissors to create a “flap” in order to accommodate Rion roof windows. Leading edge of flap should be clipped to the roof window. Shade cloth can also be installed loosely over the roof to allow roof window to open.
