The Benefits of a Dry and Healthy Crawl Space

Having a healthy and dry crawl space in your home is very important because it affects the way we live. How? THE AIR! 80% of the air we breathe in our homes comes from our crawl space. Most homes have dirt crawl spaces that are prone to developing moisture and humidity, affecting the air. Having a clean crawl space can prevent numerous issues. 

Here are 2 benefits to having a clean and healthy crawl space:

1. A HEALTHIER LIVING SPACE

By encapsulating your crawl space, you are preventing a plethora of issues including humidity, dampness, mold, pest infestation, rotting wood, and other issues. The most important part is that you are creating a healthier living space for your home.

2. LOWERS UTILITY BILLS

A damp and humid crawl space affects the heat and cool air in your home. For instance, a humid crawl space affects the way cool air travels throughout your home, causing you to increase the temperature and your electricity bill. A clean and healthy crawl space provides the proper temperature and will not affect the heating or cooling air in your home. 

In conclusion, a healthy and dry crawl space creates a happier living experience in your home!
