We live in a world full of security; doorbell cameras, burglar alarms, deadbolts, fire alarms, etc. And in the world today why wouldn’t you want that extra protection? But what about the dangers you can’t see, what about the ones that may be lurking right under your nose.  

You might not think about your crawlspace often, but it has a profound impact on your home and you. Due to a force called the Stack Effect air from your crawlspace creates a vacuum and is pulled up through the home. The result: 70%-80% of the air you breath comes from under your home. So, what happens if you have dust, mold, mildew, fungus, and moisture in your crawlspace? All of those environmental factors that you think are just under your home are actually what makes up the composition of the air you breath in your home. This can have serious health impacts for you and your loved ones.  

Aside from the air quality issues involved with crawlspaces moisture can be not only a constant nuisance for your home, but a sign of worse problems to come. Ground water, humidity pulled in from the air outside, and unforeseen leaks can result in high moisture levels in your crawlspace. These factors are contributors to rotted wood, bowed flooring, and in extreme cases a breeding ground for mold and fungus – which as we discussed previously can vastly decrease your quality of life. Not to mention the structural harm that is being caused by rot and decay, leading to devastating repair costs.  

 Crawlspace Encapsulation addresses this problem at the root, installing vapor barriers, sealing vents, adding dehumidifiers and drainage systems. These simple and proven solutions are what it takes to protect your crawlspace. Stopping the spread of mold and fungus, preventing those airborne odors, and even saving you money on your monthly energy costs.  

 So, when you think about protecting your home, remember not to forget about what’s under you. Adding in that extra layer of protection can increase your quality of life, protect your loved ones and save you money.
