Check out this great before and after that really shows what a crawl space under your home can look like when its dry and healthy. Air travels up, and so most of the air you breathe comes from your crawl space. This is known as the stack effect. To promote better quality air, we always recommend sealing this space from the outside environment that can cause dampness which creates mold.
Encapsulation seals the space off from cold winters, wet springs and humid summers. It can help create a barrier not only for moisture but for small pests that like to use your crawl space as their new home. Preventing water and moisture also helps protect your foundation from water damage.
