Bioclimatic greenhouses

Bioclimatic greenhouses are state-of-the-art roofing systems that allow you to shield the sun’s rays, allowing light to enter, thanks to a system with adjustable metal profiles with thermal break (in corten or brass).

Using this technology it is possible to:

Shelter from the sun’s rays, allowing light and air to enter.
Protecting from the rain.
Save on air conditioning / heating costs.

But be careful, a glass cover is not enough to qualify a greenhouse as “bioclimatic. The structures and bioclimatic greenhouses must necessarily comply with some requirements governed by a law:

The structures must face south (south east and south west).
Windows and windows must be able to retain solar energy during the winter and favor shading during the summer.
They must guarantee a reduction in consumption of at least 10%.
They cannot be larger than 15% compared to the adjacent property.
The glass surface of the structure must be equal to or greater than 50% of the total.

Each municipality can have its own ordinances / directives regarding building materials, permits and authorizations, for this reason it is important to inquire about them.
