I've finished installing the motor, push button, and smart device to automatically raise one of the greenhouse windows. The total cost, including the geared motor, tubing, smart plug for the window motors, and the power outlet, was �180 per window. But it will be much easier not to think about the windows for most of the season; they'll open automatically when it's warm and close when it's cold. I can also raise or lower them with my phone. If there's a storm warning or strong winds, going to the greenhouse on stormy days is dangerous; this is much safer.
