    Thankfully, the greenhouse wasn’t currently in use, so we didn’t lose any plants.
    Unfortunately tho, the propane had been disconnected from it while waiting for some repairs. So there wasn’t really anyway to melt or clear the snow from it fast enough. The greenhouse that is in use suffered a bit of bending to the frame too, even with the heat cranked up and us trying to manually remove the snowpack from the gutters.

    We’ve been getting hammered with the weather here…

      That’s good that there was no product.

      For what it’s worth, the gutters are the last of your concern, they can hold the snow on the roof, but it’s the roof the snow manually needs to be removed from.

      Always fun contracting a snow removal company to climb on your roof when the snow is expected to total over the snowload calculations. I get it though, companies are cheap, bottom lines too meet and it’s sometimes worth chancing it.
