Vent for Transporting Poultry in an Enclosed Trailer

Updated 07/27/2017 | Published 07/26/2017

Question:

I have a 5x8 enclosed trailer that I will periodically transport poultry in for poultry shows. My trailer has one pass thru vent currently. I want to know if this would be enough ventilation or if I should be adding additional vents? Any recommendations is greatly appreciated.

I can't tell you for sure how much ventilation you need to transport your poultry because it's really out of my wheelhouse.

With that being said using the Trailer Vent # WHMAV2-WAVT2 is a very viable solution. We often see vents like this installed on the side of enclosed trailer towards the front with open side facing forwards and then another of the vents towards the rear of the trailer facing backwards. The idea is to create a pass through of air flow.
