High humidity in a house in Pointe-Calumet, Qc
The problem
Mrs. Desjarlaies had humidity problems in her house that came from her earthen crawl space that was not insulated. The relative humidity in the crawl space at the time of the inspection with our specialist was 83.2%. With such high humidity, mold and rot of organic materials develop and the comfort of the house will be affected.
The solution
We installed a new SmartSump sump system, a CleanSpace drainage membrane, and then a Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier.
With these solutions, the water in the ground will be removed and ejected outside, the humidity coming from the earth floor and the concrete block foundation walls will be blocked thanks to the CleanSpace and the humidity level can be controlled by the dehumidifier.
