I need access to the crawl space. Can these vents be easily removed so I can get into the crawlspace?

The crawl space vent opening is pretty small, I guess the answer is if you are thin enough to fit now, you will, but my guess is a no! you will need a different way to get under your home so may be talk to some builders.

These vents can be easily removed but you would not fit through the opening unless you are a cat.

This is the size of a cinder block height, and attaches from the inside, so there is no way that you'd be able to crawl through, or access, the space.

no, their made for the vents in the foundation. I don't think they are made large enough to cover a crawspace entry.

I do not believe venting through an open door is an option. There is a hose that goes to an 8 to 10 inch piece of plastic that extends to fit under a window that is part way open.

The vents are permanently open (metal). The ventilator screen must be removed from the window if you wish to stop air flow.

The fan is not even powerful enough to vent my crawlspace. You need an attic fan. I bought this one: Cool Attic CX1500UPS Power Gable Ventilator FanIt is powerful but you need to put stick-on weather stripping between the shroud and brackets to ensure it does not rattle.

The whole item is made of plastic, so water should be no problem. Rain would have to blow horizontal through the opening in order to get in the crawl space, but have never seen that done or heard of it being a problem before.

It automatically vents your crawlspace of excess moisture. It works really well !!

The vents are large enough for household ants to get through. I know that from personal experience. Depending on how small the roaches are, it's entirely possible that they would be able to get through the vents in the lid.

You can vent to the outside, similar to a portable ac. I do not use the hose attachments. The filter on the back does the job and well. If I had a crawl space, I would use the hose to vent it. The cartridges are expensive but so worth it.

Paul. The clips are spring loaded and can be pushed just far enough to disengage them from the vent. I had the same problem and used a small screwdriver to push one side at a time to disengage them from the vent. Hope this will help.

Without taking it apart I don't believe so. I finally just gave up on this thing. Really unhappy with the purchase and can't use it at all. I realize I'm the minority. Just not a good experience for me, and not a good buy for what I wanted. I really thing just one of those clip on ones for the vent is a better buy.

This is much more of a construction question. There are a lot of reasons for excessive moisture in the crawl space. A moisture source, temperature, insulation, air flow, all have an effect on the crawl space. If increasing the airflow did not help I would suggest contacting a building contractor in your area to inspect and make suggestions how to solve your problem.

There's a little panel you can insert that seals off the flap so they can't go in or out. You don't have to remove the door

Yes, the vent tube can go thrue the crawl space to an exit, use metal duct to prevent rodent intrusions, but it should work.

A person could run the hose to the heater I would not personally use it it would not meet code I would make sure I would check your local code on what they require in a crawlspace right now either would have to use a black pipe or the yellow flexible tubing that you can get at a local box store/lowes or Home Depot

Only if there is a place for the exhaust (crawl space or attic might be possible)

Yes they can be removed. There is a hatch door which can be opened and shut easily. No need for anything to scoop them out because the globe can be spun to the desired position and they can easily drop out when the hatch is open.

Yes I can remove the lid, if I pull on it even a little, after the middle button is pushed down. I was able to do this pretty much immediately, so it's not that the product is old or faulty. They don't seal 100%. They close pretty well but they are not airtight at all. I live in Hawaii, and was concerned about bugs and humidity. The good part is that bugs (esp ants) haven't gotten in yet, after two years. But the bad part is that the humidity has gotten in. So most of the stuff I keep is in a plastic bag inside of the container. Pretty lame, considering the price, but they stack well and aren't ugly.
