What's Included in a Growing Dome Kit
What Comes in a Growing Dome Geodesic Greenhouse Kit - Each Growing Dome is a geodesic dome greenhouse kit which includes the core structural, glazing, ventilation, hardware, connection components, and core features required to assemble the dome as an integrated passive greenhouse system.
-
Multi-wall Polycarbonate Panelling 16 mm UV-resistant multi-wall polycarbonate glazing. Durable, light-diffusing panels that create the greenhouse shell. -
Canadian Spruce-Pine-Fir Wood Framing Pre-cut, colour-coded, and pressure-treated spruce-pine-fir framing, shipped on a single pallet. Structural Canadian SPF lumber forms the dome's resilient frame. -
Stainless Steel / Aluminum Hubs and Hardware Corrosion-resistant hubs and hardware securely connect every framing member. -
Solar Undersoil Aeration System 12 v hybrid fan drives the solar undersoil system. Circulates air beneath beds to moderate soil temperatures naturally. -
Reflective North Wall Insulation Aluminum north-wall insulation fitted for your dome size. Reflects sunlight inward while reducing heat loss through the north wall. -
Drip Edge Flashing Directs runoff away from panels, framing, and foundation edges. -
Water Tank Climate Battery Dimensions vary based on Growing Dome size. Stores thermal energy and helps stabilize interior temperatures. -
24" Foundation Wall with Structural Siding Structural siding can be treated and painted to create a custom look and feel to your Growing Dome. Elevates and insulates the dome, providing a durable structural base. -
Exhaust Fan + Frame Kit Additional vents can be added to help manage summer heat, if needed. Roof-mounted fans expel excess heat and humid air from the dome. -
Solar-Powered Intake Fan + Frame Kit Solar powered by default, with electrical setups available. Includes a fitted cover for winterizing. Draws fresh outside air inside using solar power. -
Aluminum Shade Cloth Additional clothes can be added for interior crop protection during summer. Clothes can be applied outside the dome for additional heat mitigation. Reflective shade cloth reduces heat while preserving diffused light. -
Snowshed Entryway with Door & Window A covered entryway that keeps snow off the doorway. Additional entryway and airlock upgrades available depending on dome size. Weather-protected entrance with an integrated door and viewing window.
Assembly is required and may be completed by the owner, hired labour, or a qualified contractor. Counts and sizes of some parts change with the dome size; each size page lists them.
What's Not Included
In addition to the dome kit, projects require additional materials, systems, and coordination to complete the greenhouse setup.
- Foundation and site preparation
- Electrical, plumbing, or utility connections
- Interior growing systems (beds, irrigation, etc.)
- Bulk owner-supplied materials (soil, gravel, etc.)
- Supplemental heating or advanced climate control
- Labour or installation services
These elements vary by project and are often determined by your location, goals, and level of build-out.
Upgrade Options
- Western Red Cedar Longer-lasting, naturally resistant framing with a rich, warm finish.
- Skylight Five solid clear polycarbonate panels for an open view of the sky.
- Airlock Entryway Vestibule An extended entry that keeps the growing climate inside steady.
- Additional Snowshed Entryway + Door A second way in and out for larger domes, schools and groups.
