Hot air into crawl space

NeilTheCop · 01-03-18, 07:56 PM

Has anyone ever heated a crawl space with a hot air panel?.
I have a south facing wall of about 30 feet in length and 5 feet below any windows which is ideal for the panel. And the most direct way of using the heat from the panel would be to duct the hot air to the farthest side of the crawl space and pull the cooler air from the other side to give some underfloor heating during daylight.
Here in New Mexico the average humidity is in the low 30% so we don't suffer from mold which was my primary concern.
Can anyone see any downsides?
