Poor indoor air quality in your crawl space is due to excess moisture, mold growth, and other contaminants. Air pollutants from your crawl space are transported to the rest of your home. To improve air quality in your crawl space and therefore your entire home, we recommend installing a complete crawl space encapsulation system. A proper encapsulation system will help maintain a stable humidity level in your crawl space and ensure that it stays clean.

Maintaining relative humidity levels is essential because it ensures that mold and mildew don't grow and affect your home's air quality.
