CRAWL SPACE PROBLEMS
Water and Humid Air
Groundwater evaporates into the home via the unsealed crawl space, spreading humid air and dampness into the living space of the building.
Health and Mold Problems
Mold flourishes in the humid environment and is the leading cause of respiratory problems in the home. 50% - 90% of the air you breathe in your home comes directly from the crawl space.
Dry Rot and Musty Odors
Moisture in the crawl space increases dry rot and structural problems. The odor you smell is wood decaying.
High Energy Costs
When the heat is turned up in winter or the air conditioning in summer it is drying out the dampness in the living space caused by the crawl space.
