Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Encapsualated crawl space in CleanSpace, Qc
We have encapsulated this crawl space in Victoriaville since it was very humid and moldy.
As a start we installed the CleanSpace water vapor and a SaniDry humidifier.
The CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system is a very duty 7-Layer liner material, like a pool liner. It gets installed across the floor and up the walls in order to stop all water vapor from the walls or soil.
Once the Cleanspace is installed, we needed to install the SaniDry dehumidification system.
An unhealthy crawl space
A wet crawl space can lead to a variety of health and safety problems in your home. These can include mold growth, rotted floor joists and pest invasions.
Mold deteriorating the wooden columns
Mold is dangerous and mold thrives under your home. The area is dark, moisty and badly ventilated. And they also love wood and organic materials.
Efflorescene on the crawl space walls
The white chalky powder is Efflorescence, which means that water was leaking in this area.
Exposure to black mold in the crawl space
Black mold are toxic, and they cause many problems such as chronic coughing, irritation to the eyes, rashes, chronic fatigue and persistent headaches.
Cleanspace Drainage Matting installed in Victoriaville
The raised dents on our CleanSpace Drainage Matting gives the water flooding into your crawl space a channel underneath your crawl space liner. This directs the water flooding your crawl space to your perimeter crawl space drain and sump pump system.
