Linear Actuator Installation Overview

Linear actuators are essential components for automating ventilation in your greenhouse by opening and closing shutters and louvers. Proper installation is key to their reliable and long-lasting operation. This article will provide various diagrams, images, and videos to help you ensure your linear actuator is working properly.

Many greenhouse shutters and louvers are designed with springs that aid in their operation. These springs pull the louver/shutter closed, and it’s important to ensure there are two, one for each side, for balanced function.
