Help with room ventilation

[Toad37]

Not a bad idea. Obviously would have to fiddle with it until you get the temps dialed as desired, but it could work. Then when you need the room to stay warmer/heated you could hang a blanket or something over the vent to cover it.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not sure why I didn't think of putting a blanket or towel over the vent. That's definitely worth a shot! Thanks a ton!

Honestly I'd be worried that you could also end up with a mold issue with all that warmth & no ventilation. I know it's more expensive & more effort, but IMO the best thing would be an up-duct- with a fan, like they install in bathrooms. You definitely need something for that "room", so you're not cooking your snakes- they shouldn't be 84-85* with no options to be cooler, & what if something comes up where you can't be home to open things up sometime- you know, things "happen"- I wouldn't want to risk harming my animals.

Mold doesn't really scare me because I gutted that entire room and used mold resistant drywall and paint. I knew the humidity in that room could pose an issue so I wanted to be preemptive on that.

As soon as I crack the door the room almost immediately cools down a few degrees but yes I do need to figure something out for the animals sake cuz I'm not always home.
