I am finishing a basement which has a 4’x 3′ (approx.) opening in one of the walls which leads to a crawlspace underneath one room of the house. I am furring out the walls and putting up drywall and I know I need to maintain access to this crawlspace. I assume I have to put some sort of a door/access panel in this opening. My question is whether or not I have to provide a vent in this door or panel that will allow the crawlspace to remain a heated space and if so, what is the best way to do that?
