! HOMEVENT Sub-floor ventilation fan To combat the challenges associated with providing adequate ventilation in hardto-naturally ventilate spaces below suspended ground floors, Homevent has launched a mechanical ventilation alternative. The MORI WMF Weatherproof MultiFunctional Sub-Floor Ventilation Fan is designed to control air moisture content, as well as radon gas, in sub-floor spaces. It is weatherproof, which means it can be installed on the outside of the property, limiting maintenance to periodical inspection and cleaning from outside the home. The fan has been designed to deal with operating temperatures from -200C to 500C.
