Question:

We want to use a couple of these in conjunction with a fan to keep outside air flowing through the trailer while it is sitting still. How many cfm will be able to flow through each one of these. Thanks

The Vent for Enclosed Trailers - Aluminum - 12-1/4" Wide x 10-1/2" Tall # PLR20 will allow outside air to flow but there is no cubic foot per minute rating as that would require a fan or direct wind for a vehicle sitting still. The fan you use will dictate that and the air flow of that fan will be lower than the rating because only four 2 inch diameter holes will draw air.

I recommend the Flex-a-lite 12" Trimline Reversible Electric Radiator Fan - 12V - 1,105 CFM # FLX112 for your application.
