Crawl Space Ventilator
Crawl Space Ventilator
Excessive moisture in your foundation, due to poor ventilation may make your home susceptible to an increase in mold, mildew, wood rot and pest/insect infestation. Our crawl space vent minimizes potential wood decay to your home's foundation. This in turn will decrease wood rot in your crawl spaces and moisture problems in the living area of your home. In addition, the constant air circulation will vent other gases, such as those formed from residues in termite treatment, treated wood, and radon gases. By incorporating the crawlspace venti nto your homes crawlspace ventilation system, you can help stop mold growth, mildew, rot, pest /insect infestation and decrease high humidity levels while increasing the overall airflow within your foundation. Excessive moisture in your foundation, due to poor ventilation may make your home susceptible to an increase in mold, mildew, wood rot and pest/insect infestation. Formula: Length x width x height = total cubic feet of crawl space Divide = total cubic feet of crawl space / 15 = CFM needed for proper foundation ventilation. Example: 40' x 40' x 2' crawl space = 3200 cubic feet of area divide 3200 cubic feet by 15 = 213 cubic feet per minute (cfm) of air flow needed to ventilate your crawl space The Crawl Space Ventilator listed below Is Rated At 110 cfm for each unit. Therefore, 2 units would be required to properly ventilate a crawl space of this size. As with all powered exhaust systems, proper intake air vents should be used. Generally, one air intake vent is recommended as a minimum for air intake. Having 3-4 intake vents would be ideal. These crawl space ventilator should be installed on opposite ends of the intake vents, to allow air movement across the entire space to be ventilated.
