Crawl Space Vent Minimizes Potential
Wood Decay in Your Home
ÃÂ
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.

Crawl Space Vent Size Needed
To aid natural crawlspace ventilation, mechanical ventilation should exchange the crawlspace air at least four times an hour. To determine this, multiply the square footage of the crawlspace by the height to calculate the cubic feet then divide by 15 to determine the CFM needed to properly ventilate your crawl space.
Crawl Space Vent 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
This Crawl Space Ventilator 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 ventilators should be installed on opposite ends of the intake vents, to
allow air movement across the entire space to be ventilated..
ÃÂ
Crawl Space Vent Is Less-Expensive Solution
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.
ÃÂ
Our powered crawl space vent creates a powered ventilation system for crawlspaces that
can be utilized in both old and new construction. The foundation vent fan is designed to be mounted behind any new or existing crawlspace vent. Its operation is controlled with a temperature switch/humidistat control which activates the motor at or above 50úF and is user
adjustable for the varying levels of relative humidity in your crawlspace.
ÃÂ
By incorporating the crawlspace ventilation into 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.
