Our take on the Air Vent Inc. Aluminum Foundation Vent with Slider FA109000

A 16 x 8 in. stamped aluminum foundation vent that drops into a standard block opening and replaces a 16 x 8 in. block. It has an adjustable sliding damper and a built-in 1/8 in. wire mesh insect screen, with 36 sq. in. of net free area when the damper is open. At $19.88 at Family Hardware as of November 4, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent range across the 5 stores that price it new.

Questions and answers

Is this vent worth it over a plain fixed vent?
Yes if you want to control crawl space airflow. The sliding damper lets you close it in winter and open it in humid months, which a fixed louver cannot do.
What size opening does it fit?
It replaces a standard 16 x 8 in. foundation block. The face is about 16 in. wide and 8 in. tall, and it is 1.25 in. deep.
Does it keep out insects and rodents?
It has a built-in 1/8 in. aluminum wire mesh. That blocks most insects and small rodents, but check it yearly for tears.
How much airflow does it provide?
36 sq. in. of net free area with the damper fully open. Closing the slider reduces that, so keep it open in humid weather.
When is the price lowest?
Foundation vents sell cheapest in fall and winter, outside the crawl space repair season. The current $19.88 at Family Hardware is already near the low end.
Where is the Air Vent Inc. Aluminum Foundation Vent with Slider FA109000 cheapest?
At Zoro, for $18.87, as of our latest check.
What do buyers say about the Air Vent Inc. Aluminum Foundation Vent with Slider FA109000?
Rated 4.4 out of 5 from 9 ratings.
Where can I buy the Air Vent Inc. Aluminum Foundation Vent with Slider FA109000?
13 stores we checked sell it, including Family Hardware, Opentip.com, Zoro, Walmart, eBay.
