If you need a simple and effective natural ventilation of the underground in the garage, you can perform it in a couple of ways. Both cases involve the use of a pair of through exhaust pipes running through the garage, the upper end of which is led out. This type of ventilation is called intake-exhaust. You can independently create such a system in two days.
Ventilation of a cellar using two pipes
Now more. The edges of such ventilation are made at different levels, having the top of one pipe at the ceiling, ventilated space, and the lower part is lowered to the floor. In connection with the change in pressure, the temperature difference at the inlet and outlet of the tube, air circulation begins between them.
The check of basement ventilation begins with the experiment: it is necessary to cause air circulation, for this we create conditions with different temperatures in the basement and on the surface. For example, it can be done this way: a bucket full of hot coals to install in a cellar or use a channel heater. Then you need to bring the sheet to the duct and see if it is swaying. If the temperature difference is sufficient, the air current will be constant and strong.
We ventilate the basement: one
pipe Even one pipe is enough for your cellar to be permanently dry and ventilated. The existing cracks can also play a positive role in this matter, however, for a normal air exchange, a single airway tube should be more than 15 cm in diameter.
When it is not possible to establish an air exchange naturally, it is possible to organize a process with a mechanical motivation. This will help not to be wasted on the factory supply and exhaust system. In the exhaust pipe simply install a fan that will "draw" the air from the basement, changing it to fresh, from the surface. This scheme will help to remove dependence on the weather.
One of the components of a good underground climate is the relative humidity of the air, this characteristic is partially regulated by ventilation devices. It is worth noting, with increasing humidity, the quality of ventilation falls.
Ventilation of the cellar in the garage
This can often be observed when the ground waters that overlap high penetrate directly to the basement. This is most noticeable in the spring season. When the snow melts. The basement of the garage becomes damp, and the ventilation system, of course, does not withstand such loads. There are difficulties in the summer, when the basement air due to poor circulation rapidly
becomes musty. Here you can use a tin can, which is a millimeter or one and a half more than the opening of the air pipe. The sidewall must be drilled at the bottom, then cut out the hole, fastening a long screw below it, and the thread with the nut remains outside. It will be a self-made balancing system that will ensure a smooth position to the windmill. In the sidewall of the jar opposite the opening, install a trapezoidal "tail".It will work on the principle of a weather vane, turning the device towards the wind, and catches a stream of air.
You will have to attach the windbreaker system to the pipe. We do it this way: put the axis, with the end thread. We fasten it on the pipe to a simple small bracket. We drill the bottom in the middle, we insert from inside the hole a drilled bolt, which we need to screw onto the threaded axis. It is necessary to choose the length of the axis, so that the pipe is slightly covered by a jar on it. The installation is completed by balancing. With the advent of this simple device, ventilation will become noticeably better.
The sample of the wind-collecting device
The principle of operation is quite simple - the weather vane turns the system so that the hole in its side surface turns against the air flow, fresh air enters the pipe and goes to the garage. One tip is that in winter, the self-made device should be closed and ventilation should be damped.
Also we advise you to read how to dry the cellar and about the ventilation of the cellar with your own hands.
