CS3
The CS3 Greenhouse is designed for maximum flexibility of use. Growers can choose a variety of coverings and ventilation options to suit their needs while maintaining common truss and column spacing throughout the range. Educators have found that the CS3 meets the needs of their Horticulture and Agriculture students. Natural ventilation is available through wing applications, rigid roof vents, sidewall vents, and sidewall curtain systems. With common truss and column spacing, the CS3 can be configured easily and uniformly to accommodate walks, trolley systems, rolling benches, doors, fans, and evaporative cooling installations.

The CS3 is a traditional A-frame style greenhouse that provides an attractive appearance, superior strength, and quality construction. This structure is designed for rigid covering such as double walled polycarbonate structured sheets, acrylic sheeting, single-wall polycarbonate sheeting, or corrugated metal covering. The CS3 can accommodate motorized roof vents. The standard truss spacing is twelve foot on center, eliminating the need for gutter kick braces. The CS3 has a vertical design that allows Stuppy to customize an environment for schools, retail centers, institutions, and growers.
