Crawlspace encapsulation involves adding a protective barrier to a crawlspace. This moisture control technique is highly effective against many different types of damages and concerns caused by excess moisture, but many homeowners haven’t encapsulated their crawlspaces. Crawlspace encapsulation is important for many different reasons. Here are a few of them.
- Better Air Quality – Crawlspaces, when not encapsulated, can cause unclean air to enter your home, affecting your indoor air quality. The quality of the air you breathe can have a major effect on your health, so hiring a crawlspace encapsulation service to help improve your home’s indoor air quality is a great step to take towards protecting your health.
- Decreased Insect Presence – Insects and other pests like crawlspaces because they provide moisture that pests need for survival while building their nests and causing other damages. With crawlspace encapsulation, moisture levels in your crawlspace are much more controlled, deterring insects and other pests from making your crawlspace their home.
- Improved Energy Efficiency – With improved energy efficiency comes lower utility bills. Crawlspace encapsulation helps increase your home’s energy efficiency by decreasing the amount of work that your HVAC system has to do to control the moist air that comes from your crawlspace.
Crawlspace encapsulation is a necessary service for any homeowner that wants to help protect themselves and their property from the dangers of excess moisture levels.
