A Vented Crawl Space
Many homes were built with a vented crawl space with a dirt floor. The warm and cold air passing through the vents causes condensation in the crawl space. This allows the insulation on the sub-floor to sag, causing it to be useless.
A Dirt Floor Causes a Dirty Crawl Space
A dirt floor in a crawl space can cause a mess! Especially if the soil becomes saturated due to groundwater or plumbing leakage.
Installation of Drainage Matting
Dr. Energy Saver Delmarva has begun the installation of drainage matting along the dirt floor of the crawl space. The drainage matting is dimpled to create air space for water to flow.
Installation of SilverGlo & CleanSpace
Dr. Energy Saver Delmarva has installed CleanSpace liner across the drainage matting. This helps keep the crawl space clean and dry. SilverGlo has been applied to the walls of the crawl space to keep it insulated.
