Moisture Barrier in Powhaten, AR
Challenge
Peter L had a crawlspace that could not keep the dampness out. Peter contacted Crawl Space Solutions of Arkansas. Where our Systems Design Specialist came out to design a solution based on Peters needs.
Solution
The best solution for Peter was to install the CleanSpace vapor barrier on the crawlspace floor, install the SmartPump sump pump system, and line the perimeter walls with SilverGlo insulation panels.
Our foreman and his team came out to install the CleanSpace vapor barrier, the SilverGlo insulation panels, and the crawlspace sump pump. The team installed the sump pump in the lowest point in the crawlspace. The drainage matting allows some air to circulate underneath, and allow for any moisture underneath to make its way to the SmartPump. Over the top of the drainage matting went the CleanSpace vapor barrier. The vapor barrier is sealed together for a seamless look throughout the crawlspace floor. The vapor barrier will help control the moisture entering the crawlspace through the crawlspace floor. The team then installed the SilverGlo insulation panels, which would help control moisture coming from the cement block walls.
Now, Peter can enjoy a crawlspace with controlled moisture and radon levels, while being insulated from the cold or warm air outside.
