Benefits of Sealed Crawl Space
Sealing a crawl space offers several benefits, including improved indoor air quality, reduced moisture levels, prevention of mold growth, enhanced energy efficiency, and protection of the home's structural integrity. It also creates a cleaner and more usable storage space.
Drainage Matting
The matting is installed on the crawl space floor before the liner. The matting prevents moisture build up and allows water to drain freely to the drainage system.
Dark Crawl Space
Before encapsulation, the crawl space was dark, damp, and potentially hazardous. It likely had poor ventilation, high moisture levels, making it an unsuitable environment for storage.
Fastening CleanSpace Vapor Barrier
The CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed by first preparing the crawl space surface to ensure it was clean and smooth. The barrier was then laid out and cut to fit the space. It was fastened securely to the walls and floor using a combination of construction-grade tape, adhesives, and mechanical fasteners to create an airtight seal.
Thermal Insulation
SilverGlo Insulation Panels are high-performance insulation panels designed to improve energy efficiency in crawl spaces. They work by providing a thermal barrier that helps to maintain consistent temperatures, reduce heat loss, and prevent moisture intrusion. The panels are typically made with a reflective surface that enhances their insulating properties.
