I have a 26-inch diameter round gable vent that ventilates a small attic space that can't be reached from anywhere in the house or attic. (It's connected by a space too small for a person to get to it.) This vent is made of wood and fitted into the brick-veneer wall.
When there is a heavy rain with high wind from that side of the house, water blows in and wets my first floor ceiling near the vent. There is can lighting built in directly below the vent.
I'd like to simply cover up the vent and seal it, but am concerned about stopping useful ventilation in that area. Any suggestions? |
