sparko Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 Hi AllWhat would be the best ventilation to use on my new loft im about to build ,now ive built one loft but the big problem I get is when it snows in winter the snow swirls up and comes straight in the loft through the gap at the top ,i have no electric where my loft is and don't want to be travelling back and forth to close flaps on vents etc so is there any other way of getting good ventilation that would work well and not let the snow in. atb Nick

sparko Posted June 10, 2015 Author Report Posted June 10, 2015 do you think that ronnie williamson type vent in the roof would stop the snow getting in ? as i like the idea of this
andy Burgess Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 do you think that ronnie williamson type vent in the roof would stop the snow getting in ? as i like the idea of this maybe , but what about the "thaw" would it let moisture in ?? an uncle of mine had an "envelope" type cover on his vents . 2 triangular sides , a covered front and layered inside . 2 1/3rds from front to back , alternate back to front . hope that makes sense and you can picture it ?

PIGEONPACKMAN Posted June 11, 2015 Report Posted June 11, 2015 Two chimneys one higher than the over the taller one will suck air down the smaller one, in theory put the lower ones pipe closer to the floor.
Tony C Posted June 11, 2015 Report Posted June 11, 2015 Would something like this do the job. Inside you have vents on each side which you can open/close.
sparko Posted June 11, 2015 Author Report Posted June 11, 2015 ive got a few ideas ,thanks for the input
