Insect Netting “Filter” For Ventilation

This is the same 48” (123cm) shutter vent looking from the outside of the structure. However, there is a white box around the vent. This is made of 1” (2.54cm) PVC pipe that has snap clamps installed to hold the insect netting.

Since the insect netting is very fine (Protek Net Insect Netting in the 25 gr model) the netting area needed to be increased more than just the surface of the vent to not have a restricted air flow. By having essentially five sides the air can easily move though the netting and enter the structure insect free.
