Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Cozy Crawl Space, Freeburg, IL
Moisture vapor can get past a plastic vapor barrier in a crawl space at the unsealed perimeter or where ever the plastic is rolled back. The insulation holds this moisture and sags or complete drops off leaving the home unprotected from the heat and cold in Freeburg, IL. For insulating the walls, we use SilverGLO™. It is an R13 reflective material that helps control the comfort inside the crawl space because it blocks moisture and helps keep the temperature constant. Also, it does not support mold growth like the moisture condensing on the pink insulation. The rest of the crawl space is sealed with CleanSPACE™ a durable vapor barrier that stops any water vapor from being released up from the dirt crawl space and getting into the home. A sealed crawl space with insulated walls makes the home more comfortable year round.
