Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Humid Crawl Space Encapsulated in Ocean County, NJ

The insulation was falling out of place and littering this Ocean county, NJ crawl space. It had high humidity and needed to be fixed. The new homeowner wanted to have a more energy efficient, cleaner crawl space, so he called Quality 1st Basement Systems. Quality 1st Basement Systems removed the damaged insulation and installed a crawl space encapsulation system. The installation crew laid down CleanSpace vapor barrier to prevent any moisture from coming into the crawl space. Our vapor barrier system comes with a 25 year warranty against rips, holes, and tears. Not only does it keep the crawl space dry, it also protects the wooden crawl space beams from rotting. To help lower the high humidity even further, they installed a SaniDry dehumidifier. Since the SaniDry dehumidifier is self-draining, it requires no further attention after it is installed. Moisture that is taken out of the air is emptied out of the crawl space simply and easily. That means this homeowner can focus on other duties, like relaxing and enjoying his newly installed vapor barrier.
