Product Information

A special sleeve can be used in these cases. It is shaped like a ‘Z’ and works like a periscope – funneling air down below the floorboards, from a hole above the internal floor level, see the images below. Most properties with wooden floors on the ground floor will have a void, or gap, underneath. The air in this void can get stale and humid if it is not encouraged to circulate freely. Humid air carries a great deal of moisture, in fact the warmer the air the more moisture it can hold. Our group have been in the mesh industry for over 150 years. We are one of the UK’s most trusted mesh suppliers because: If the suspended timber floor has been removed and replaced with a solid concrete floor, the void will also be filled in with concrete, so there’s nothing to ventilate. As you can see from the image above a timber wall plate is laid on top of the sleeper wall to allow a fixing from the joist to the wall to be fitted.

Without adequate ventilation, suspended timber floors will experience a buildup of condensation in the colder months; this can lead to damp problems, rot, insect infestation and the structural collapse of the floor. Yes, the Air Vent Covers can be used for internal vents. Both external and internal vent openings can be securely covered with these covers. Pests cannot move between rooms or areas within a building when they are used internally. Their high-quality stainless steel and aluminium materials ensure durability and longevity, which makes them suitable for various environments, including those with varying humidity and temperature conditions. Externally or internally, these covers provide excellent airflow while also acting as an effective barrier against pests. Beauty Advent calendars are significantly pricier than chocolate ones, but they've become increasingly popular in the last few years as a way of bagging beauty products at a fraction of the normal cost. They often sell out early, but can also be heavily discounted later if they don't, so here's a round-up of some of the best I’ve seen. Make sure when you lay them that the drain pipe slopes a very tiny bit towards the outside of the property, to prevent water ingress. See diagram below for an illustration of what we mean.Experienced staff: Our staff are knowledgeable, experienced, and can provide expert advice and assistance to customers.

We also regular write blogs and help guides to help explain what our materials can be used for. However if the joist is soft and spongy, or so flaky that your screwdriver pushes into the timber easily, then the joist is rotten below the surface. Once this level of decay has set in, new timbers need to be fitted. However in the worst case scenario the moisture leads to dry rot, which will need specialist treatment to cure it. If your floor is creaking then it may be a sign that there is a problem with the joists, caused by condensation and rot.

As a group we work closely with architects and designers to develop ground-breaking new applications for our multifunctional range of materials. We also offer state of the art fabrication and engineering for projects of all sizes. Fitting this special vent sleeve involves digging a hole in the ground against the wall, to the correct level and then cutting through the wall at that level. This should be at least 50mm (2 inches) below the underside of the floor, and ideally 25mm (an inch), or so below the level of the underside of the floor joists.Manufactured with a plastic frame and a stainless steel weaved mesh. This unit is suitable for external installations in all weathers.
