6" down, seams to be waterproofed, end to be closed to insects and other critters.

That's what they do when installing active ventilation systems over here.
Normally, it goes over a highly efficient heat-exchanger as it's used even in winter (the ground @ 6' under usually being warmer than the outside air), but for summer use, you could do without the heat exchanger.
