Clean Space Encapsulation in Camden, AR
Challenge
The customer stated she has an older home with a slanted crawl space. She has had issues with her floors sagging and has fixed this issue as she could afford. she is noticing some spots that are sagging again as well as a musty odor she believes is coming from the crawl space. Also, there has been evidence of mold in the past.
Solution
The best solution for Debby V was to install the CleanSpace® vapor barrier around the perimeter of the crawlspace and the floor, install a drainage matting on the floor, and install a vent cover to keep out as much of the humid air as possible.
The production crew came out to install the products. The project began with installing the vent cover over the existing vent-hole, which would control the humid air coming through. The team then laid down a dimpled drainage matting over the floor of the crawlspace, which would help control the moisture from the dirt floor. Over the top, the CleanSpace® vapor barrier was installed. This barrier was laid seamlessly throughout the crawlspace, and then mechanically fastened to the walls to ensure stability.
Now, Debby has a drier, less humid crawlspace, which could now benefit the air condition in his home.
