    Jasper, I’m no expert but would it not have been better to put the shade cloth above the roof ? Greetings from UK.

      With such a low pitch, it would likely affect the waterproofing and if it were to snow in winter, not good.

    Jasper - the hole saw for cutting the 100mm hole in the masory should be connected to an sds drill with a ratchet system (so you don't break your wrists) and not a drill / driver - that's why you smelt the burning out of the motor. It is always easier to put in tubes before you cement the walls, perhaps a little foresight would help. Also with the shadecloth, put it above the plastic, it should have been light in colour (as light colours absorb less heat), and make the fixings strong so that it doesn't blow away in the high winds there.

    Hi Jasper, with glass green houses we used to white wash the glass, cooled the temp and stopped the scorching of plants. I bought a few cheap fans to move the warm air around. Which surprisingly does cool it down.
    Looking good, another job ticked off your list. Stay sane and safe.❤😊

    Jasper, Diego Leon (RUclipsr) uses timber battens pegged into the ground.
    It would be quicker using that method.
    He also uses steel reinforcement and connects them together to maintain rigidity with the separate poured sections.

    @angeladresler1855 3 месяца назад +1

    Hi Jasper, great to see you are still working hard, you know you can get those rolls of raffia on a roll think that would of look good and keep the heat down too, is the net sufficient enough? Sometime you have to experiment, to find a solution. The kitchen is coming on great, I remember when my late husband was alive and we had to raise the floor in the old kitchen by quite a lot did not realise just how much cement was needed at the time and of course the drying period. Many inches and he was impatient to get the tiles down, I am getting there with my reno now, but I know on your own working can be very slow as you only have one pair of hands and the heat will slow you down, I would volunteer but I think I am getting to old ha ha. Hope you have someone soon to help you, it nice to watch you and then it motivates me for tomorrow again. Good luck, take care now.

    Try an elastometric white coating on those plastic panels. The white coating reflects the sun away and stops the decay of the panels caused by UV rays. It will seal the panels really well extending their life and will really make a difference in the temperature on the patio.
    I use this product a lot of solid material roofs like tile or even membrane, but it is not recommended for asphalt shingles which have to breathe to stay dry.
    Here is the info:
    1...Elastomeric roof coating can be used on plastic:
    2...Elastomeric roof coating adheres well to polyester plastic panels.
    3...Elastomeric coatings can protect PVC roofs from water penetration, UV radiation, and harsh weather conditions.
    4...Elastomeric coatings can extend the life of a roof by protecting it from the elements and preventing the underlying material from deteriorating.
    5...White elastomeric roof coatings reflect sunlight, which can lower interior temperatures and save on energy costs.
    6...Elastomeric coatings are applied in liquid form with a roller, brush, or sprayer.
    Enjoy your videos!
    I use shade clothe on open slats above a patio often but always above.
    If I were a younger person I would buy along side you in the land of my ancestors.

  • @mungmungie
    @mungmungie 3 месяца назад +1

    Staying cool must be a real challenge. If I were living in a climate like that I think much of my energy would be put toward creating shade everywhere I needed to go outside.

    Goed bezig Jasper. Elke vorm van dakbedekking bij een overkapping wordt extra warm bij 40 graden. Zonwering werkt inderdaad nog het beste. Als je het nog eens gaat vervangen kun je ook transparante polycarbonaat platen van meerdere lagen nemen maar die zijn een stuk prijziger. Daar kun je wel eenvoudig nog een dakraam in maken waardoor de opstijgende warmte weg kan. Je moet maar zo denken, in de winter heb je er weer voordeel van.

    An idea, remove all the plastic roofing, then put new beams on top of old beams so you have an air gap between tiles and roof height. Now put 3 steel and 1 plastic roofing sheets along your new roof.

    I live in Australia in a similar climate and I have a 11 X 5 metre verandah on the back part gable and part flat unfortunately I have sheets of Perspex in that for light. Let's huge amount of heat in . 90% shade cloth or dble layered steel roof with foam sandwich between . Never Perspex. Creepers or bones are good but tend to be uneven and take a long time plus maintenance. Anyway keep up the good work Jasper.

    Here in the States we have a product called Liquid Shade (now: Kool ray Classic) that you apply to glass and poly carbonate greenhouse once a year in spring. It naturally wears off over the course of the season (is environmentally friendly) and will need to be reapplied yearly. Think painting the roof, but you control the level of opacity. Also, doesn't collect dead bugs ;-)

    if you are trying to cool the room with fan, you need an inlet pipe preferably buried about 2 foot down, the longer the better, that deep down ground temp remains pretty constant, the fan will then pull cooled air into the kitchen, love the shade and coming together..

    This green mesh on the underside of the plastic roof will not help, I can tell you by my own mistake. You have to do something on top of that plastic roof, not on the underside. When I've did an apprenticeship in gardening back in the early 1990ies, we puth some kinda chalky white "color" on the top of the greensouses. Until winter it'll be washed away by rain, so in winter we got cleard windows without extra cleanng. Maybe this will help? Or something like that: on top of the plastic, and white or reflectant - old bedsheets, rescue-foiliage with the "silver" side upside etc...
