Is there a store when I can purchase a vent to install in my pantry door?


Pantry walls are insulated and back pantry wall faces the garage. The pantry gets pretty humid and I need a way to ventilate it without leaving the door open. Do I have other options?

Try a louvered door. No holes, vents or electrical wiring needed. Any home improvement ctr carries them.

Go to a home improvement store and look for one. Make sure to ask about installing it properly too.

go to a heating and cooling shop they can get you vents that will attach to both sides of the door with screws

install a vent in the dooor which you can get from home depot or lowes

I really wouldn't recommend it, but you could install a bathroom vent fan in the ceiling or wall, venting into the attic or garage. It would suck cool air in under the door and keep it cooler. Since you don't "live" in there, I really don't think I'd keep stuff in there that couldn't handle the climate. You would be throwing away good money running the fan. I guess another option wuold be to buy a couple of white louvered eaves vents, cut a hole close to the top of the door, mount one on each side of the door and let the natural flow of heat rising flow out the vent bringing in cooler air from under the door.
