Crawl Space Vent (Temp-Vent) - One Piece Unit
Help protect your foundation with Crawl Space Temp-Vent. The foundation is critical to the integrity of the home.That's why foundation ventilation is critical. Unventilated foundations are subject to built-up moisture that can eventually lead to costly damage.
Crawl Space Vent Temp Vent foundation vent systems help protect this critical area of the home. What's more, ventilation can help control conditions that lead to mold, mildew, fungi, damp rot, and unhealthy air.
Why Should You Use?
If there's one thing termites are attracted to, it's warm, moist, dead-air environments such as those found under houses in crawl spaces or unfinished basements. Temp-Vent products have been especially designed for the pest control industry.
Temp-Vent foundation vents help to provide ventilation that can reduce moisture in these areas, which helps control termites.

Directions for Use
Whenever possible, vents should be placed on all sides of the foundation. This will create an intake/exhaust system that delivers a steady flow of air. One vent should be installed for each 8 to 10 feet of foundation wall.
Most building codes require 1 square foot of open ventilation area for every 150 square feet of crawl space. Temp Vent Automatic Foundation Vents have 50 inches of net free area per vent. Therefore, you should install one vent for every 50 square feet of crawl space.
For crawl spaces with polyethylene installed, on 80-90% of the ground, the ventilation requirement changes to 1 square foot of ventilation for every 500 square feet of crawl space with a minimum of 4 vents installed to provide cross ventilation. For crawl spaces with polyethylene, install at least one vent for every 500 square feet of crawl space.
The non-powered, Automatic Foundation Vent will open and close automatically using a heat/cold sensitive coil. The louvers open completely at approximately 72 F and completely close at approximately 38 F. Unlike manual vents that can waste energy when no one remembers to open or close them, these vents self-adjust all year long.
To Specify
To determine the correct number of Power Temp-Vents, use the following formula:
1. Multiply the square feet of the crawl space by the height in feet. This gives the number of cubic feet in the crawl space.
2. Multiply the cubic feet in the crawl space by the number of air changes per hour desired (4-6 is the recommendation). This gives the total number of cubic feet of air that has to be moved per hour to produce the desired number of air changes.
3. Divide this number by either 7,200 or 11,160 depending on which model is being used to obtain the number of power vents needed.
4. Install vents to provide air intake on one side of the foundation with the power vents on the other side to create a system of intake and exhaust.
Calculating how many foundation vents are needed.
Example: 1500 square foot crawl space x 3 feet high = 4500
4500 cubic feet x 6 = 27,000 / 7,200 = 3.74
Install 4 power vents with intake vents on the opposite side.
Please refer to and follow the instructions on the Product label.

Rated by Greg Zimmerman (Posted on Sunday 28 August, 2011) Review by Tammy Franklin (Posted on Saturday 13 August, 2011)I needed a one-piece temp vent for my crawl space because I was going to store some temperature sensitive things in the basement. I researched the existing products in the market and my choice was the pestmall product.
Rated by Benjamin Lambert (Posted on Saturday 02 July, 2011) Review by Luis Burnett (Posted on Sunday 22 May, 2011)No worries at all. :)
Review by Tim Thomson (Posted on Saturday 21 May, 2011)We needed a crawl space vent. So we asked the exterminator for options and he said to buy from pestmall. It was worth the money. This vent system is very effective.
Review by Gerald K (Posted on Sunday 15 May, 2011)About a year ago I found out that I had a small termite problem. I was rather shocked and asked the exterminator what I can to do stop them from coming back. He told me that they probably came in from under the house looking for moisture and that I should install a crawl space vent to keep the moisture levels down. I decided on the Temp-Vent crawl space vent because it was relatively inexpensive, it was easy to install and I haven’t seen any termites again.
Review by Stephanie Corbett (Posted on Wednesday 04 May, 2011)It was long since I have been experiencing fungus problems in my crawl space and basement. It was because of the moisture. Crawl space vent was a crying need.
Review by Shawn Lloyd (Posted on Monday 14 February, 2011)I use the one piece crawl space vent and it works pretty good.
Review by Joanne Tyson (Posted on Thursday 30 December, 2010)easy install ventilation vent.
Review by Lindsay Evans (Posted on Wednesday 10 November, 2010)I decided to have this one and also bought Crawl Space Vent install it all over my house crawl space and it’s really effective.
Review by Peggy Corbett (Posted on Sunday 01 August, 2010)I am used to work in my basement. But the air there did not smell very good. And some dump feeling was along with that. So, I asked around my friends. One was in the constructions, he told me to use a crawl space vent to control the moisture. And I did. It does not smell anymore down there.
Review by Mary Gray (Posted on Saturday 29 May, 2010)Thank you so much to Crawl Space Vent !
Review by Vincent Grady (Posted on Saturday 08 May, 2010)I gave this crawl space vent a five-star rating. Reason being I like the model and color options available. It also has fairly long life span. It does the job very effectively. I am happy using the pestmall crawl space vent.
Review by Lauren Shepherd (Posted on Friday 16 April, 2010)this is effective.
Review by Patricia Nguyen (Posted on Monday 08 March, 2010)I was really happy with the result! Totally amazing and effective!
Review by Rita Yates (Posted on Thursday 21 January, 2010)The pestmall crawl space auto vent is a very efficient choice for any crawl space vent.
Review by Ray P (Posted on Saturday 20 June, 2009)I’ve had a problem with moisture in my basement and crawl space for the longest time. This had caused a few pest control problems. Someone suggested that I purchase a crawl space vent and I bought the Temp-Vent variety because it had such good reviews. My basement and crawl space is now much drier than I can remember it being and I have the added benefit of sealing up my crawl space entrance which has been the impromptu home for a raccoon or squirrel on more than one occasion. I would definitely recommend this product for anyone facing similar problems as I.

Q. about temp-vents
I have installed these vents for years during my employment with a pest control company'with great success rates.However ,I am currently working for a company who does not beleive in using vents.my employer who has been doing this for over 30 years in the pest industry is afirm beleiver in sealing up a area completely to keep out any moisture.now i realize this is a more extensive and costly approach.He also showed me this article that kind of back up the facts that to help eliminate termites it is best to seal a area like a crawl space completely up.Again i have been in the industry myself for about 30 years.Can you help me out with any literature/websites that i can produce to help change his mind.I know there a old saying you can't teach a old dog new tricks.but you can try and change his eating habits a little.I live in the baltimore area. thanks in advance for any help.
A.
Thank you for contacting us with your question.
Please visit http://www.tempvent.com/
There is a PDF file called Vented VS. Sealed Crawl Spaces
This was the only article I could find to back up the vents. There may be statistics on the study of new sealed crawl spaces, however it still remains to be debatable. The best way to go about it is to go with the building code in your state. Some states require at least one vent on each side of the crawl space.
