Wet, musty crawl space
When there is water present in a crawl space, it will eventually evaporate, rise, and create condensation when the humidity touches cool air ducts. This will cause mold to grow, making a musty, damp smell linger throughout your home!
Concrete walls have voids!
Water can seep in through the tiniest cracks and there are many voids in concrete cinder blocks, allowing moisture to come in.
Exposed dirt floors
Dirt contains moisture from the earth. When moisture evaporates, it rises, and creates condensation when it hits cold air ducts in the crawl space. Where there is moisture and humid air, mold can grow.
Encapsulation process
Since this crawl space has much moisture in it, we started with our raised mat before our CleanSpace liner. This mat has raised dimples that allow moisture to travel underneath the liner to the sump pump to be pumped out and away from the foundation.
CleanSpace!
The best permanent solution to moisture and mold problems is our CleanSpace Encapsulation System! This liner is made from non-organic, mold-resistant plastic that will result in a dry crawl space, and healthier airflow.
New crawl space door
Most crawl space doors are made from wood or metal that rot and rust and over time, fall apart. Our crawl space doors are made from non-organic material that will not fall apart over time. Our doors also contain an air-tight seal, so no moisture, humidity, or unwanted pests can come into the crawl space.
