CleanSpace Liner keeps crawl space dry

Challenge

A woman in Brick was tired of her nasty crawl space. It was full of debris and very humid. The outside air was easily infiltrating the crawl space and even the main part of her home. While there was no mold growth, she knew that the moisture could potentially create a mold problem. She wanted to protect her crawl space and home before mold became an issue.

Solution

Quality 1st Basement Systems had the right solution for this homeowner. The Quality 1st Basement Systems team installed the CleanSpace Liner, which is a complete crawl space encapsulation made of plastic layers designed specifically to protect crawl spaces. The plastic liner is waterproof and resistant to mold, making it the perfect material to shield crawl spaces.  For crawl spaces with dirt or concrete floors and walls, it is easy for groundwater or damp air to seep in. Both soil and concrete are porous, allowing for the moisture to enter.

The CleanSpace creates a seal against the elements, which prevents moisture from entering through the concrete or dirt. This helps to decrease humidity and keep crawl spaces dry. This can also help with lowering utility bills, as the outside air in crawl spaces often seeps into homes. The CleanSpace crawl space vapor barrier system brightens crawl spaces in addition to protecting them. Now this homeowner has a neat, bright crawl space.
