A connector 16 for an underfloor vent 8 comprising a first end comprising a first aperture 20 for attaching to at least one airbrick 10, and a second end comprising a second aperture 22 displaced further from the first aperture than a third aperture 24, where in use each of the second and third apertures are attached to separate under floor vents. The first aperture may be attachable to two stacked airbricks. The second and third apertures may be attachable to one end of separate underfloor vents when two underfloor vents are stacked. The connector may comprise a flange having a recessed shoulder proximate the first aperture. The connector may comprise four joined side walls defining openings at each end of the connector, the first opening defining the first aperture and the second opening being split by a member 34 to define the second and third openings. The flange may interference fit with an airbrick. Also claimed is a system for venting a building comprising the connector, at least one airbrick, and at least two underfloor vents stacked together mounted to the connector, and a second connector 28 attached to a second end of the stacked vents.
