Air vent
marie hall 10/11/2026 - 8.05 AM
I have an air vent in the sitting room which always has a draught which is horrendous in the winter. Can I fill it or cover it? We don't have a gas fire or anything that specifically needs ventilation. The house is 25 years old

So no gas fired units and above the floor, I would swop for a slide closable one see how you go because condonsation could be an issue later

As said I would recommend a fraught reducing vent which uses a filter to allow breathability whilst stopping the draught or installing a one way vent.
