I was just wondering how ventilation is required in a

crawl space?

NSWER:

TION RE

NI cE:

JRED IN CRAWL

I recommend that you install vents between the
joists, that is where the “joist. box” is located. | would
suggest that you put at Teast one square foot of
ventilation, through the “box joist” (the 2x10 that runs
around the perimeter of the house, where the joists lay
over top of the concrete wall). This will enhance the
ventilation in the crawlspace.

You may also wish to consider the installation
of a product called REFLECTIX INSULATION. The
addition of insulation will add warmth to the upper
floor, especially if- you have a cold crawl space.
REFLECTIX can be installed between the floor joists

in the “ceiling” of the crawl space, as illustrated in the

brochure.

The vents should be in the “open” position
during the summer and in the “closed” position in
winter. This allows adequate movement of air, in order 4
to eliminate any build-up of moisture. It is the moisture
which can cause the mould spores to grow.
