Do you know what is lurking in your crawl space? What you can’t see can still affect you, your family and your property in many ways, including:
- Foul odors
- Mold, dry rot & structural decay
- Bouncy or sagging floors
- Poor indoor air quality
- Uneven temperatures and discomfort around the house
- Cold floors during the winter
- High energy bills
Crawl Space Encapsulation is the science-backed way to solve and prevent all these problems.
The Problem with Crawl Space Vents
The old-fashioned way to build and treat crawl spaces (opening the vents and lining the floor with a plastic sheet) was proven to be both inefficient and disastrous. Modern building science concluded that this type of treatment was either causing or aggravating the common crawl space problems common across the U.S.
Crawl spaces get moisture from two sources: groundwater and outside air. The typical plastic floor cover doesn’t completely isolate the crawl space from the ground, so groundwater is still evaporating into the space. To make matters worse, it tends to rip, tear and crumble over time.
Crawl space ventilation, once thought to help dry things out, is allowing humid air from the outside to get in. That is especially bad during the summer because humid air enters the cool crawl space, relative humidity levels reach above 100%, at which point condensation starts to occur. Wood beams and joists soak up the water, and the moist, soft wood invites mold, rot, and termites.
