Open Crawlspace
This crawlspace has no protection from the outside moisture and heat with it being open. The AC that heats and cools the home will constantly be battling against the outside air, ramping up the energy bill.
High Relative Humidity
The humidity levels in the crawlspace were high at 75% relative humidity. The recommended humidity level is under 55%
High Wood Moisture
The wood moisture was high at about 20%.
After Encapsulation 1
The encapsulation installed protects the crawlspace by keeping out humid outside air and ground moisture, while insulating the outside walls.
After Encapsulation 2
Our full encapsulation system includes a dehumidifier to measure and control the air moisture levels.
