Under Floor Ventilation
I'm looking to improve the ventilation to a suspended timber floor with
some new vents - they'll open to an outside path that has built up over the years to near internal floor level. I see there's these 'periscope' type things: https://manthorpebuildingproducts.co.uk/product/g965-dual-extended-underfloor-vent But it seems to me they'd take a fair chunk out of the 9" solid brick walls, and the air flow doesn't look that good. Would flat letterbox-sized grilles over a say 10" deep 'pit' feeding a horizontal cut through the wall below the existing floor work? I can see the issue of debris falling in, but if the grilles are reasonably removable I can't see that being a dire problem. If it is doable, is there a source of grille/conduit - can't seem to see anything online. -- Cheers, Rob |
