Reference Material:

• Suspended Timber and Suspended Concrete Floors: Ventilate the underfloor space by providing ventilation in two opposing external walls so that the ventilating air will have a free path between opposite sides and to all parts.  Ventilate voids by openings providing not less than 1500mm²/m run of external wall or 500mm²/m² of floor area, whichever gives the greater opening area.  Provide ventilation in internal sleeper walls or similar obstructions to maintain the path of air.
• The NHBC recommends ventilators for suspended timber floors be spaced at not more than 2m centres and within 450mm of each end of any wall.
• The Building Regulations state any pipes needed to carry ventilating air should have a diameter of at least 100mm.
• Also refer to: The Building Regulations 2000, Approved Document C,
• The Building (Scotland) Regulations, Mandatory Standard 3.4,
• NHBC Standards,
• British Standard BS 5250.
