The crawl space received a total encapsulation. Once all existing mold was removed, a high-performance vapor barrier was installed, which effectively air seals the area to prevent any moisture from entering the now conditioned space. This means that mold, moisture, and pests are no longer a concern. Additionally, the area was equipped with a French drain, sump pump, custom access door, and a dehumidifier to ensure optimal conditions.
The editors said: “We were pleased to see the innovation taking place in this home’s crawl space. We gave this project extra points for equipping the space with extras to ensure optimal conditions for a healthy, comfortable, and energy-efficient home.”
