If you have a vented, uncovered dirt crawl space underneath your Massachusetts home, it's highly recommended that you have it upgraded to a conditioned crawl space, which means your crawl space needs to be isolated from the earth and sealed from outside air.
In the freezing Massachusetts winters, cold air blows into the crawl space through open vents and gets upstairs in one of two ways - the stack effect (a house's natural tendency to draw air in from lower levels upward into living spaces), or the HVAC system through your ducts.
In the humid New England summers, on the other hand, the hot ambient air is loaded with excessive moisture and gets drawn into a cool crawl space through the open vents, making it a recipe for rot an unhealthy mold that can be sucked up into your entire home. This is because your house is one building. It operates as a system and you can't have one part of the building that is sick, and another part that is healthy. You can't rationalize that you never go in the crawl space so you aren't affected by it. Why? Simple. Air mixing.
Now there is a solution to your dirt crawl space - The CleanSpace System - developed by Basement Systems, the world leader in dry basement and crawl space technology. Here are some of the features and benefits of the system:
