The benefits of Aluminet Shade Cloth-One

ALUMINET reduces heat load in the greenhouse. Because of the highly reflective nature of ALUMINET, radiation is reflected away from the net. With black shade cloth, the radiation is absorbed by the net resulting in hotter nets. The black net thus provides a heat source to the greenhouse at a time when the greenhouse should be cooled. If ventilation is adequate, temperatures in houses with black net can be maintained very near houses with ALUMINET, but the fans will be working more to achieve the result. In situations where the heat load is pushing the ventilation to its limits, actual temperature differences will occur, with the ALUMINET being cooler.
