We are all engineers in a way tho…

Just remember warm air into cold crawl space will cause condensation which can lead to a mold situation.

Just like growing weed , see I can grow

Can you vent to the attic

Could yes same as the crawlspace. There is a vent up there too. I think I like the floor best so far

 

[RosterMan]

I may just do it while the hubby is away so he don’t get stressed out. Sometimes better to get forgiveness than permission. Plus I think I have a hole saw already that will work…

If you frame as a problem solved you won’t even need forgiveness.

I know a lot of engineers who would collapse a building if they tried to drill a hole thru a wall(even though their load and structural calculations all indicated it was feasible). I also know a lot of tradesmen that know how to make things work.

And pray she does not cut right over a joist beam

 

[SubmarineGirl]

I’ll check for that first

I think she is ex-navy. All the ex-navy people I know are anal about thinking things thru especially the sub folks. Can’t make a mistake underwater…

One other thing once you have the hole in floor why not move tent right over it and cut a hole through bottom and seal around with gorilla tape so vent pipe goes right down inside tent to crawl space This why pipe is hidden completely.

The crawl space is clean and not bad to crawl under. I’ve been under there. Should be easy to measure and verify no joist wires etc in the way. Yes i do tend to over engineer every job. Submarine work does kinda make you like that…

good night

Don’t really want to cut the tent bottom. It has a nice bottom with waterproof tray. I think I will end out with a very small elbow from the tent to the floor. Shouldn’t even notice it. Thanks again for your help and chat
