Unsurprisingly I'm on a draft fixing run at the moment. In my first floor box room is an airbrick/vent that's showing as 2C where the surrounding wall is about 12C. With the back of my hand it's obviously cold.
On the outside of the house the airbrick is directly below the roof eve. What I don't understand is why there is also a vent on the internal wall. I've looked at some DIY products that have vents you can close, but given I don't know why it's there in the first place I don't want to simply close the vent off. Anyone provide, a probably obvious, answer to why it's there?
