We fit the Eden 2KW in smaller greenhouses where mains electricity is not available. It is a compact propane heater that runs quietly and holds temperature well overnight. The twin safety systems — an ODS valve and flame failure device — mean you can leave it running with confidence while you sleep.
This heater suits 6×8ft and 6×10ft greenhouses. The piezo ignition lights the blue flame burners with one click. Once lit, the built-in thermostat cycles the heat to hold your chosen temperature. In a typical British winter, we measure 3–5°C above outside temperature in a well-insulated greenhouse running this heater overnight.
A standard 13kg propane cylinder lasts several weeks with typical overnight use. At 2kW output, the Eden balances heat against fuel economy well for smaller structures. The green powder-coated finish matches most aluminium greenhouse frames and holds up in the humid greenhouse environment.
Everything you need is in the box: the heater, gas hose, and regulator. Remember to leave a roof vent slightly open when running any gas heater. Combustion produces moisture and CO2 that need to escape. We recommend cracking the vent by 10–15mm on each side of the ridge.

A solid base is the backbone of any greenhouse. You might think skipping this step saves time, but trust me?I've seen plenty of greenhouses fail because of poor foundations. A dodgy base causes more headaches than you'd believe.
What happens with a bad base? Glass cracks. Doors jam. The structure twists. Water pools where it shouldn't. And fixing these problems costs way more than doing it right first time.

Placing your greenhouse in the right spot makes all the difference between thriving plants and disappointing results. As a greenhouse specialist who's spent 15 years helping UK gardeners optimise their growing spaces, I've seen first-hand how position affects everything from temperature regulation to plant health.
Let me share what actually works in our unique British climate. The greenhouse position might seem like a minor detail, but it's one of those things that can make or break your growing success. I made this mistake myself when I first started - my poorly positioned greenhouse meant I was fighting an uphill battle with inadequate light and temperature fluctuations.
