Is Your Crawl Space Costing You?
Your crawl space doesn’t have to be nasty. You may think, “I don’t go into my crawl space, so why should I care?” Well, if its in your crawl space, its in your home. Up to 50% of the air we breathe in our homes comes from beneath the home. This means that all the mold, dirt, and dust that is in your crawl space is in the main level of your home. Mold and dust mites are allergens, and can affect your family’s health.
In addition to poor air quality, your crawl space risks your home’s value. A damp crawl space can cause mold, wood rot, and termites. Each of these threaten the structural integrity of your home. Lastly, a damp, vented crawl space can cost you money. Damp air takes more energy to heat or cool. As more cool air enters your damp crawl space, more enters your home, raising your heating and cooling costs.
The good news is, there is a solution. The CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system is a vapor barrier, preventing moisture from entering your crawl space. CleanSpace is inorganic so it does not support mold growth. In addition to CleanSpace, the SaniDry Sedona is an energy-efficient dehumidifier can be added to your home or crawl space to reduce the moisture in the air.
