One vent?

[mp183]

The place I bought has only one "vent" it's a screened window
approx 1.5x2 feet in size. It's the only opening.
No moisture problems that I can see but will give it a good
look this weekend. Can't see venting in the winter.
Gets to 30 below on a regular basis in my town.
In the other three seasons there are always showers and
a lots of morning dew. So it's more moisture outside
than inside. Trailer floors are original and all are straight
in the portion that has not been renovated.
It's a permanent foundation. Looks like rigid insulation board
that was done over on the outside with 1/2" of cement.
Stucco I would call it. The whole thing looks about 3" + thick.
The soil under the trailer is not moist and really on the dry side.
I will probably cut in one more hole but don't see the need
to vent it more than that unless I notice problems underneath.
Soil is really sandy in the area so that might be a real big help.
If water puddles when it rains it's gone within 10-15 minutes.

Hi,

I am going to split your post and start a new thread with it.

Although you are taking about venting it is still different than the orginal thread. Others will have comments /suggestions for you.

Thanks for understanding.

Do you have any access panels to get under your home to yearly inspections?

Also, I believe that it is recommended to have one vent per 150ft square feet of space. You can do a search here on site...or some one will jump in and give the specifics.

I can get in two different ways.
I just got the place a few months ago so I have
to really get under there and take a good look.

YUP, that is a must or at at least I think so LOL. You live up North correct, if so better get under there before the cold weather settles in. Now is a real good time to think about weatherizing the home for winter. In our Articles link above I believe there are some tips to follow.

The winterizing questions are to follow.
Have not decided what to do yet.
