  Installation

  Solexx panels are easy to install. Much more flexible than twin-wall polycarbonate greenhouse panels, Solexx bends around corners and is easily scored and cut. Panels can be screwed onto existing greenhouse frames, and continuous rolls allow for fewer seams when covering structures.

  R-Value - The measurement of insulating ability of the material. The higher the R-Value number the greater the insulation value.
  U-Value - The measurement of heat loss through the material. The lower the U-Value the less heat is escaping.
  *Independent testing, Solexx with caulked flutes.
  ** Requires constant inflation to maintain R-Value.
