No airbrick for the first floor

Options
Hi,
I've noticed that while I have airbricks at the ground and second floor to aereate the subfloor I don't have it at the first floor.
I imagine that the airbrick was present and later covered by the kitchen extension installed 10 years ago by the previous owners.
I'm wondering if this lack poses a risk for the subfloor. I have some decent space around the heating pipes that provides some airflow (at the touch it feels like there's some cold air movement) and I can also remove one lightbulb from the downlights below, but is it enough to provide enough areation?

Last summer I opened a large part of the subfloor boards and I noticed that they were quite dry, not even remotely damp.

Thanks
