Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Waterproofing a Wet and Musty Crawlspace in Belleville, IL
Water was entering a crawlspace in Belleville, IL, creating a Damp and musty environment, and also allowing mold to grow. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was first installed. This will isolate the crawlspace from the ground. It also controls water, humidity, outside air infiltration, and heat loss. The white finish will brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside. Additionally, a SaniDry Sedona was installed. This efficient, high-capacity, dehumidification system also includes an air filtration system, all in a single unit. This system wrings the air dry, and its powerful blower moves the dry air in and around the area.
Next, the SmartSump System was installed. This system is just the right size to fit in the crawlspace and still can collect plenty of water from the home and sudden groundwater problems beneath the liner. Also, the IceGuard Sump Pump Discharge System was installed. The patented design of this system automatically allows water to escape through its perforations when pipe terminations are blocked, usually by ice or snow. Lastly, a LawnScape Outlet was installed. This connects the discharge lines to a special extension sending water away from the foundation while camouflaging the end of the pipe. Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will stay dry all the time!
