Our 1903-built mid-terrace cottage was built on slope, lower in the front than the rear. The living room at the front has a suspended floor about 600mm above ground level, while the rear has a solid one at ground level. There is a single airbrick at the front. The front is exposed to any slight wind from the south-east round to north-west.
I'm in the process of chasing and sealing draughts at the front of the room, but a cursory check at the rear of the room hasn't yet revealed any air outlet. I've read that suspended floors need air in and out.
In the event that I don't find an outlet at the rear, do I need to make one? If so, how I go about it when the floor at the rear of the house is solid?
TIA
