Orientation of 2-Piece Polypropylene Trailer Vent to Prevent Air Flow Disturbances

Question:

Read this from a previous response about venting hot air from a cargo trailer: “Since heat rises I would at the very least put a set of the Trailer Vents # HMAV2-AVT2 near the top of the trailer to get the hottest air of the trailer out. What you could do for maximum air flow in your trailer is have a set facing forward in the front of your trailer near the bottom of the side wall and then have another set facing rearward at the top/back of the trailer. This will maximize getting cool air into the trailer and hot air out.” Would the forward facing vents cause a lot of air disturbance inside the trailer? Have some kind of delicate items in the trailer and am worried about a lot of moving air causing issues. Thank you

If you are worried about moving too much air in your trailer with the install of the trailer vent part # HMAV2-AVT2 your best option would be to only run these vents as exhaust vents so facing the rear of the trailer as that will gently pull air out of the trailer as you are driving.

I attached an install video for this vent for you to check out as well.
