Crawl Space Encapsulation in Metro Atlanta, Alpharetta, Marietta, Duluth & nearby
You might not realize, but various hazards can come from your dirt-floored, vented crawl space, such as:
- Foul odors
- Poor indoor air quality
- Mold, dry rot & structural decay
- Bouncy or sagging floors
- Cold floors during the winter
- Uneven temperatures and discomfort around the house
- High energy bills
Crawl Space Encapsulation is the science-backed way to solve and prevent all these problems.
The Problem with Crawl Space Vents
Treating crawl spaces by lining the floor with plastic sheet and opening the vents has been proven to be not only inefficient but also harmful.
Moisture gets into crawl spaces through two main sources: groundwater and outside air. Covering the floor with plastic sheet doesn’t do a good job in isolating the space from the ground, so groundwater is still getting in. It also tends to rip, tear and crumble with time.
Crawl space ventilation, originally devised to help with drying things up, allows external, humid air in. It’s even worse during the summer, when relative humidity levels in crawl spaces can surpass 100%, which leads to condensation. Wooden beams and joists absorb the water and become soft, a breeding ground for mold, dry rot and termites.
