Ventilation Louvres

Finishing Cabin Walls - What Do I Do With the Gable Vents?

I am going to be insulating the inside of my cabin and putting up t&g to finish off the interior. (It's just been studs and the outside sheathing until now.) Essentially, I want to winterize it. I have louvre vents up near the peak of the roof on each gable end - What should I do with them? Doesn't seem right to winterize a cabin and leave the eave vents open to the outside. Especially considering they're up top and would let heat out. This sort of situation - http://www.lancasterbarns.com/acatalog/cottage-399-3.gif Advice? Thoughts?

  1. Close it up from the inside. That way you don't have to damage or repair the exterior of the cabin. It's the only fast and cost affective solution I can think of. Best of luck, hope that helps you out!
