Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Humid Crawl Space Repair in Jacksonville, FL
We tackled a damp and humid crawl space by installing a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to seal off moisture, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control humidity, an interior drainage system to manage water flow, and a high-performance sump pump to keep the area dry. The combination ensures long-term protection and improved air quality.
Humidity Reading
A healthy humidity reading in a crawl space is typically between 30% and 50%. This range helps prevent mold growth, wood rot, and excess moisture that can attract pests or compromise air quality. This crawl space had a high and unhealthy level of almost 84%
CleanSpace Vapor Barrer
We sealed the crawl space walls, support columns and floor using our 20-mil, CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. This liner stops moisture in its tracks and prevents it from passing through into the space.
Dirt Floor
Ground moisture that had evaporated into the air caused the floor joists to weaken and warp. This led to uneven floors above.
SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier
The SaniDry Sedona works by pulling in humid air and passing it through a filter and cooling coils. As the air cools, moisture condenses into water, which is collected and drained away. The now-dry air is released back into the space, keeping it clean and dry. It's energy-efficient and designed to maintain optimal humidity levels, preventing mold, mildew, and musty odors.
Healthy Crawl Space
These products work together to ensure the crawl space stays dry and healthy, giving the homeowner peace of mind. The CleanSpace Vapor Barrier seals out moisture from the ground, while the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier controls humidity levels to prevent mold and mildew. The interior drainage system and sump pump handle any water that enters, ensuring the space remains dry even during heavy rains. This comprehensive solution protects the home's structural integrity, improves air quality, and eliminates musty odors, creating a worry-free environment.
