Crawl Space Encapsulation for Homes All Across the US
Most homeowners do not know which problems may be forming in their crawl space until it is too late. Many of these issues can affect the health and well-being of their family and property, such as:
- Foul, Musty Odors
- Mold, Dry Rot & Structural Damage
- Bouncy or Sagging Floors
- Impaired Air Quality
- Uneven & Uncomfortable Temperatures
- Cold Floors During Winter Months
- Higher Utility Bills
Grate Products offers the science-backed solution for all your crawl space problems with its advanced crawl space encapsulation technology.
The Problem With Crawl Space Vents
The standard method of construction and treatment of crawl spaces aimed to solve common problems mainly through two procedures: lining the floor with a plastic sheet – so as to insulate the crawl space from all the moisture in the ground – and providing ventilation. Unfortunately, as time went on, modern building science concluded that not only were these solutions not working as intended, but more often than not they were making matters worse.
Plastic floor coverings are not able to adequately isolate the crawl space from the ground and thus prevent groundwater from evaporating into the area. Also, vents that were supposed to help dry out moisture actually let exterior humidity in. This situation worsens during the summer, when warm, humid air enters the cool space, raising relative humidity levels and resulting in condensation that is absorbed by your home’s wooden structures and exposes them to hazards such as mold growth, dry rot and other problems.
