If you’re a greenhouse gardener looking for a sustainable way to keep your crops warm during the winter and cool during the summer, you may be interested in building a climate battery. Climate batteries go by several names, including earth tubes and earth batteries.
Additionally, by controlling the humidity within the greenhouse, climate batteries can help reduce the potential for disease in your crops. You can always gain additional control over humidity by installing a simple humidifier or dehumidifier too.
The first step in building a climate battery is gathering your supplies. The exact supplies you need, as well as the quantity of each, will depend on the specific system you’re building. You may need heat exchange tubing, manifolds, risers for pulling air in and out of the underground tubes, and rigid foam insulation.
To use solar-powered heaters, you’ll need solar panels, some batteries, a solar charger, an inverter. Gas heaters designed for greenhouses and which are thermostatically controlled can be used to heat your greenhouse. Gas heaters use piezo ignition, so they don’t rely on mains electricity to ignite and heat your greenhouse.
It isn’t uncommon for growers to have electric alarm systems in their greenhouses. Monitoring systems analyze the conditions in a greenhouse to ensure they are optimal for plants’ growth. Some growers use these systems, and they require electricity to function. Do People Normally Run Electricity to Greenhouses?
The heat and moisture from the air are transferred to the subsoil, releasing cooler, drier air back into the greenhouse. If your weather is unusually cold or cloudy, you can activate fans to transfer warm air from the underground tubes into the greenhouse. Is a Climate Battery Right for Me?
