A Few Words About VRE Shade & Save ? Systems The VRE shading, black out and/or heat retention and thermal curtain system consists of an electric motor driven unit, complete with reversing motor controls and built in travel limit switches to control the full open and closed curtain positions. It includes a set of emergency cut out limit switches in case of malfunction by the normal travel limit switches. Each drive unit mounted beneath the system is connected to a pipe drive shaft by means of universal joints and drive shaft support bearing plates with sealed ball bearings. The stainless steel drive cables, via a pulley arrangement, move the curtains. An aluminum tube carrier forms the connection between the drive cables and a 3/4" diameter pre-galvanized tube leading edge. Stainless steel cloth gatherers guarantee small fabric bundles on all sliding type installations. The VRE aluminum EXTRUSION forms a positive seal when the system is closed by means of a flexible rubber sealing strip which prevents cold air from bypassing to the heated greenhouse area, thereby giving optimum heat retention performance. The VRE EXTRUSION also forms a structural support for the thermal curtain shading system. Polyester slide wires or stainless steel suspension wires are provided to support or suspend the fabric covers. ALL hardware required to provide a fully functional system in any style of greenhouse is included.
