I'd make the top solid (to prevent the snow from going through, and put angled slats on the side with good sized gaps for airflow. As long as the box is taller than the snow it should still be able to breathe sufficiently. <br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />Try to figure out a way to deflect air around the intake. I doubt that it's sucking the snow from the ground, I think that it's sucking the snow in when it's windy. If you just box it or put a sheet of wood / plastic in a key location to deflect wind it might be enough to take care of the problem. <br /><br />Great insight! I couldn't point my intake vent in another direction, but I bought a slinky-type vent hose, clamped it around the neck of the intake vent, and routed the other end a good 3 feet away from the exhaust vent <br /><br />This seems (fingers crossed) to have fixed my problem.<br /><br />In my case, it definitely seemed as though the hot humid air from the exhaust vent was being sucked back into the intake vent, eventually condensing, turning to ice, and blocking the airway. <br /><br /><br />http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/snow-blocks-furnace-intake-528586/Rodmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01861290064200438402noreply@blogger.com
