Crawl spaces don't have to be flooded to be extremely unhealthy. Mold spores, odors, humidity and critters create a very unhealthy environment for families. Besides allergies, many people can go about their daily lives without realizing how their nasty crawl space is affecting their health and quality of life. This homeowner realized that, even though they had an encapsulation, the liner was leaking and the crawl space was in poor shape. To fix this, they contacted us to install our CleanSpace© crawl space encapsulation system with drainage matting and our SaniDry Sedona. Not only is their crawl space now a bright, attractive space in their home, but it's vapor-proof and safe to use for storage. Additionally, the low humidity means there's no new mold growth, and less pests. The homeowners were thrilled that their home is now healthier for many, many more years to come.
This crawl space was flooding, and the previous liner in place wasn't doing anything to prevent leakage. That's no surprise for us—our competitor liners tend to be thin, flimsy installations that are not long-term solutions for wet crawl spaces. However, our CleanSpace© crawl space encapsulation system has a heavy 20 mil thick liner that's over twice as thick as industry standard liners, and manufactured in 7 layers to optimize puncture resistance, flexibility, and brute tear resistance. We also installed our drainage matting to give additional durability, puncture resistance and a thermal break to the encapsulation system. After sealing all edges, seams, and pipe penetrations, this permanent installation provides long-lasting waterproofing benefits for the homeowners, significantly reducing humidity in the crawl space. Now, their home is safer and healthier than ever before!
If you have groundwater seeping into your crawl space, there's a good chance it's a thriving environment for mold, wood rot, insects, critters, and dust mites. None of these are particularly healthy in the short term for you and your family, or beneficial for the long-term value of your home. Over 50% of the air you breathe on the first floor of your home comes from the crawl space, so we want that air to be as clean, healthy, and safe as possible. That's why this homeowner decided to install our crawl space waterproofing system in their crawl space. It features our TripleSafe©, the world's most reliable pumping system. It addresses the three reasons that crawl spaces will flood: pump failure, power failure, and a single pump being unable to handle volume in hard rain. With three pumps that can remove up to 6,200 gallons of water per hour, pump up to 1/2" solids, and includes a DC operated pump, you'll never need to worry about your crawl space when it's especially wet in the crawl space. Then, we encapsulate the crawl space with our CleanSpace© liner, a heavy, 20 mil thick liner with an "UltraFresh" antimicrobial protection molded right into the material. Lasty, we installed our SaniDry Sedona, the world's most reliable dehumidifer. It can remove 100 pints of water from the air per day, yet it's an Energy Star rated appliance that runs as energy efficiently as possible!
