I've put this project off in favour of other more pressing needs, but it's still on the back burner! My pipe room is next to the furnace/mechanical room in our basement. My current notion is to connect a ceiling or wall vent to a ventilation fan mounted in the furnace room and vent to the outdoors through the wall above grade. The draw from the ventilation fan should be sufficient to create negative air pressure in the room and pull fresh replacement air from the rest of the finished basement/house. Running ductwork would be a heck of a lot easier if my joists ran the other direction, though! Always something.... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
