The cannabis business is thriving in the USA. However, the business can grow manifold with proper maintenance and care. Unfortunately, the crops get damaged easily due to unhygienic conditions and excess humidity. Although a certain level of humidity is necessary for the growth of indoor plants, excess of anything is detrimental. Installing FRP panels can look like a cheap investment, but they have huge drawbacks. Instead, spend a bit more and make a one-time investment to get PVC grow room wall panels for your business. Duramax PVC wall panel supplier gets you high-quality PVC panels that are ideal for covering the cannabis grow room walls.

Here are a few reasons why you should consider investing in Duramax panels rather than getting the FRP wallboard.

Durability

The cannabis grow room walls are prone to moisture damage. The walls need a waterproof wall panel that is not vulnerable to water vapor and can control excess humidity. PVC panels made from 100% virgin vinyl ensure water resistance and last for more than 45 years. The panels are strong due to the internal webbed truss design, which makes them resistant to abuses and high impacts. Duramax panels come with ½ inch thickness but can get customized in various lengths, sizes, widths, and shapes. Unlike the FRP wallboard, the panels don’t rot, absorb moisture, or peel off after a few years. Duramax panels don’t need repairs or replacements for a long time, whereas FRP wallboards are susceptible to callbacks every now and then.

 

Hassle-free PVC installation

Did you know that the vinyl grow room wall panels are easiest to install and take only 7 to 8 hours? While FRP panels will take two days to get completely installed, PVC panel installation is much faster and simpler. FRP installation requires skilled laborers and additional materials like adhesives, rivets, and wooden backers. On the contrary, PVC panels arrive in DIY kits and have studs and hidden fasteners that simplify installation. You can install the PVC panels yourself or hire two or more workers to speed up the process. Choose PVC panels to renovate the grow rooms within half a day with hassle-free installation.

Easy to maintain vinyl panels

The grow room wall panels are easy to maintain with a damp mop and detergents. The vinyl panels are resistant to most chemicals, and therefore you can use different cleaning agents and bleaches to maintain the white, bright, and pristine appearance. The panels are light-reflective, which is an added asset for the grow rooms. The panels distribute the reflected artificial lights inside the grow rooms to illuminate the entire space. Proper maintenance of the panels will ensure increased energy efficiency and also reduce utility bills. On the other hand, FRP panels have a rough surface, and with wooden backers, the maintenance is a hassle. FRP is also not as smooth and light-reflective as PVC.
