What Is Crawl Space Encapsulation?
Unkempt crawl spaces can negatively impact the indoor air quality in your home. On average, about 40% of the air in your home comes up through the crawl space, you need to keep this part of your home clean and dry at all times. Without crawl space encapsulation, these contaminants can spread freely across your home. At Seaside Environmental, we help Sussex and Kent County residents take control of their home’s indoor air quality with our expert crawl space encapsulation service. We install vapor barriers, dehumidifiers, and other solutions to moisture-induced problems.
Crawl space encapsulation involves multiple steps and practices to seal your crawl space to help ensure a healthy and dry environment. We use thick and durable vapor barriers to give you the best protection for your crawl space.
Advantages of Crawl Space Encapsulation
- Improved living conditions. Our approach helps to make your home more comfortable.
- Better indoor air quality. Encapsulation reduces the probability of mold growth and keeps allergens from spreading upstairs.
- Improved energy efficiency. Crawl space encapsulation can reduce your energy usage for heating and cooling by up to 20%.
- Reduced pest problems. While we’re not a pest control company, most pests do not like a clean and dry environment.
- Additional storage space. Encapsulated crawl spaces can provide extra storage space in your home.
- Protect your mechanical equipment. With a dry, properly insulated area, your mechanical equipment is no longer exposed to moisture which can cause damage and rust.
- No freezing pipes. With a properly insulated crawl space, freezing pipes is a thing of the past.
