This shallow crawl space moisture levels were leading to health problems for the owners, and the house. We installed CleanSpace walls and floors to encapsulate it, effectively blocking out moisture. We also threw in a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier and a TripleSafe sump pump to keep ground water out, and to control the humidity levels in the treated space.
A nasty crawlspace formed by dirt, moisture, and bugs can lead to poor living conditions for the inhabitants living above the crawlspace. In order to encapsulate and reduce the risk of the crawlspace flooding we installed a lot. First we installed a vapor barrier by placing CleanSpace and drainage matting over the walls and floors. We then installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, a SmartPump sump pump on one side of the large crawlspace, and a UltraSump 4 sump pump on the other side. We topped it off with SilverGlo insulation panels, which will help save big money on energy bills.
Our inspector went out to this crawl space in Aurora, IND, to give the owners of the crawl space a free estimate to encapsulate it. The homeowner wanted us to encapsulate it before the summer, so we did just that. By covering the space with our durable, moisture-proof, antimicrobial CleanSpace liner, the crawl space was ready for the summer. (Not pictured is the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier we also installed.)
This home had a musty smell and bugs coming up from the crawlspace. We fixed these problems by encapsulating it with CleanSpace matting. We also installed SilverGlo insulation panels as well.
This crawl space in Greenville, OH, was relying on blue insulation foam boards to keep the space warm in the winter. These boards were not effective, as the homeowner noted to us that the floors in their family room above their crawl space were very cold in the winter. On top of that, the homeowner noted that their family room often smelled musty in the summer, when moisture peaks in the space. We ended up encapsulating the crawl space using our SilverGlo insulation panels along the walls, our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the floor, our foam rim joist insulation, and our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. Our SilverGlo panels have a higher rated insulation value than the foam boards due to their reflective radiant barrier, which helps reflect heat back into the space. The homeowner was very happy with the outcome, and they look forward to saving money on energy costs throughout all seasons of the year.
