We plan to leave the roof and north wall panels on through the spring, to keep out the wind and rain, and then remove all of the panels for the summer. In the fall, we'll put them back on in reverse order. There's also a solar-powered gable fan in case it gets too warm when the panels are still on. MS – The panels are removable.

Hopefully the sun will come out sun. I live in the south and even we have had unusually cold, gloomy weather. It has rained more this winter than it has in years. Even when it isn't raining it's cloudy and gray. I am ready for spring as I am sure the chimps are. At least the panels will keep out some of the cold. I think they will love it. Thanks for being so dedicated to their happiness! It looks great! Hopefully the sun will come out sun. I live in the south and even we have had unusually cold, gloomy weather.

I'm in Portland and the sun has come out twice in the last 4 weeks and only for very short intervals! Can't wait our chimps to be able to spend more time outside. Kudos to everyone who's working on this proejct. You have great hearts!! Good luck with trying to find some sun!

Just cutting out the wind makes a HUGE difference, even with out clear skies and sun. Woohoo! This is such a great project. :-) By the way - I empathize with 'the weather has been awful.' Sheesh. Aren't we about due for our mid-winter 2 week bout of sun?! I bet you (and the chimps) can tell a difference already!
