Crawl Space Vent Fans

A crawl space ventilator fan keeps your space at the ideal humidity level when working with a vapor barrier and dehumidifier. It helps to maintain the integrity of wood pieces for a solid structure underneath your home. If a crawl space has a musty odor, this foundation vent fan will help filter out the bad smells by bringing in fresh outdoor air and leaving your home smelling clean.

Choosing the Right Crawl Space Fan

When selecting a crawl space exhaust fan, remember a few key factors: the square footage of your crawl space, the existing ventilation system, and the climate conditions. A larger space will require multiple crawl space fans to ventilate it properly. You must also note how many vents are installed and their sizes since this will decide if you need one large central fan or several smaller units. Frost protection is vital if you live in a location with frequent freezing conditions and will prevent damage from moisture freezing inside the fan.

Hiring a professional to examine your crawl space ensures the best course of action. They will install the crawl space ventilation fan for optimal air circulation, either near an access point to the crawl space or at a spot that needs more efficient airflow.
