Here is the side of the GH on a lovely day (LOL). Our greenhouse is a "Natural Ventilation" model, it has big vents on both sides and a smaller one along the top. Blowers keep the poly vents inflated during cold weather, then when it is warm the sides deflate. The idea is the wind comes in the sides and pulls the heat out the top.
The vertical bars are there to keep the polyvent in place. Think of an inflatable raft to float on in a pool (the cheap old fashioned kind), that is what the vent is like.
The chimney is for our wood stove, and DH Harry added the downspout. We get an amazing amount of water off the roof.
