Our house has a large extension built by the previous owner. The other day whilst in the garden, I noticed the airbricks along the back wall are all higher than the level of the interior floor, by about 6 or 8 inches. How does that work then? I thought airbricks were to ventilate the subfloor. I'm even more because the extension is built on a large concrete slab. Also, the rear wall which these airbricks are fixed in is made of solid blockwork (no cavity) and celotex or similar is fixed on the exterior of the building & rendered over. Is there any point to my airbricks? I have the planning permission/building regs certificates so I know it passed all the inspections. I'm just confused about the construction.
