SolarStructures™

Shelter Systems' portable, lightweight SolarStructures are covered with our Translucent Greenhouse Covering and can be used to capture and hold solar energy. Our SolarStructures come in many shapes and sizes. A HalfDome attaches to a house to catch and hold the sun's warmth. If the HalfDome encloses a window or door, these can be opened during the day to allow collected heat to enter the house. A long GroRow can be used to collect solar heat by attaching it to a wall of a house or the ground.

An 11' GroRow with Greenhouse Covering

RoofShells™ can be inverted and used as solar collectors.

Shelter Systems can make SolarTubes™. Used primarily as a thermal chimney to vent hot air from the building attached to it.
Also used to create a suction to pull in and circulate warm air in a house from an attached solar collector.

Our Solariums are made with a lightweight construction. They let more light through than glass. Our Solariums have been used to expand family living spaces, to create studios, playrooms, retreats, sun rooms, attached greenhouses, and more.
