Frequently Asked Questions


Q: Should I cover my foundation vents?

A: Yes, covering your foundation vents — particularly during the winter months — is generally a wise idea. Good crawlspace vent covers help prevent frozen pipes, pest invasions and a variety of other undesirable situations. As a bonus, covering foundation vents in winter may also prevent the floors of your home from getting too cold. 


Q: How do you cover foundation vents?

A: If you need to seal up your crawlspace, simply measure the crawlspace dimensions, choose a foundation vent cover and follow the product instructions for attaching it to the outside of the crawlspace foundation wall. Be sure to select airtight vent covers if possible, as insects, rodents and other pests might otherwise find entry points into the crawlspace.


Q: Should foundation vents be open or closed in winter?

A: Using crawlspace vent covers during chilly winter months is a smart precaution. Cold weather often drives common pests indoors, increasing the chances of insects or rodents sneaking into your crawlspace. Not only does covering your foundation vents discourage unwanted pests from making their way into your home, but it can also warm up cold floors and decrease the likelihood of frozen pipes.
