Greenhouse Energy Saving Curtain (Energy-Saving Screen)
The Energy Saving Curtain is designed to retain greenhouse heating energy, regulate temperature, control light levels, and optimize overall energy efficiency.
Sadsotun Engineering is the first and largest importer of thermal energy-saving curtains in Iran, widely known as Energy Saving Screens. These curtains are among the most essential greenhouse equipment, though they are also used in residential and commercial buildings to balance indoor temperatures.
By understanding their features, applications, advantages, and limitations, you can make an informed decision before purchasing.
Energy saving screens are specifically designed to balance indoor climates in greenhouses, homes, and commercial buildings. Their primary applications include:
At night and during colder seasons, the curtain reduces heat loss by keeping the warmth generated inside the greenhouse.
By opening and closing the curtain, growers can regulate the penetration of light and heat. On sunny days, curtains remain open, while on cloudy or cold days, they are closed to minimize heat loss.
Energy-saving curtains allow growers to adjust light levels by modifying the screen’s transparency. This directly influences photosynthesis and plant growth.
Curtains significantly reduce heating and cooling costs by:
Overall, energy-saving curtains reduce energy consumption, increase efficiency, and cut operational costs.
