Should crawlspace vents be kept open or closed?
Unfortunately, there is not a definitive answer to this, simply because every house is different and the climate and humidity varies throughout the seasons. While it is important to allow for the circulation of air, it is also crucial to keep moisture out. For areas where the humidity levels are high, it is often best to keep crawlspace vents closed. With the vents closed and with a proper vapor barrier in place, the moisture and humidity levels should be kept under control. It is also important to ensure that the grade surrounding the home is adequate and that any drainage issues are addressed.
