BASE SKIRTS: Columbia Shelters feature a bottom air space to facilitate ventilation and "self-cleaning" . However, in some climates it is felt that this will result in drafts during cold weather

Base Skirts are aluminum panels finished to match a shelter and attached to the bottom beams of all walls to close off bottom air space. Several types of Base Skirts are available. The "two-piece" type is comprised of an aluminum plate and an aluminum angle. The plate is attached to the bottom beam of a waIC section while the angle is bolted to your concrete slab. The vertical leg of the angle overlaps the downward extending base plate an is pop riveted to it. On sloping sites angle and plate can overlap each other and still close off bottom air space [f the slope is not too great.

Also availabie are "one-piece" type Base Skirts. These are comprised of the plate portion only and usually do not extend all the way to the concrete slab.
