Measure up from the ground on one side up and over to the ground on the
other side, then add 2 feet to that measurement, let’s say it measures 29 feet,
then you add 2 feet to that measurement, your poly must be at least 31 feet wide.
Next measure the length of your hoop house and add 2 feet to that
measurement, ground to ground it’s 40 feet long so adding 2 feet to that your
poly covering must be at least 42
feet long.
To cover the top of your hoop house you will require at least a 31’x42’
sheet of poly.
For the ends measure the width of the hoop house and add 2 feet to
that. Then measure the height in the center and add 2 feet to that. these
numbers are the minimum required to cover each end.
Most of our hoop designs can be covered either 6 mil, 24 ft. wide or 32
ft. wide poly, both of which we stock in long rolls and stock many different
precut lengths of both these widths. This
is standard 6 mil Nursery grade UV resistant poly
We also stock 4 mil in 12 foot widths for low tunnel applications
