Transforming a Humid Crawl Space with our Insulation and Dehumidification Solutions In Middleboro, MA

The Problem

A customer from Middleboro, MA contacted us with concerns about the excess humidity in his crawl space. The extreme moisture levels were causing mold growth, musty odors and a higher energy bill due to the lack of proper insulation. Luckily, this homeowner knew the right company to call for a comprehensive solution. 

Our Solution 

To ensure our team can tackle this solution, our inspector that assessed this crawl space proposed an encapsulation job which included CleanSpace vapor barrier, TerraBlock floor insulation, SilverGlo wall insulation and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. Here's how our team executed this plan:

Step 1: SilverGlo Wall Insulation and TerraBlock Floor Insulation 

To begin, our production crew lined the interior walls with SilverGlo wall insulation. This is our reflective technology that keeps this crawl space insulated all year long. This is to ensure the area stays cool during the summer and warm in the winter. Then, they installed TerraBlock floor insulation. This is our insulation that is specifically designed to keep crawl spaces at a consistent temperature to help reduce the energy bill. 

Step 2: CleanSpace Vapor Barrier

After, CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed on top of the TerraBlock. This durable white liner is made to block out any moisture from the ground to prevent any intrusion. By keeping the moisture out, the chances of mold growth, musty odors and allergies significantly decreases. 

Step 3: SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier 

Finally, we installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to dry out the humid air in this whole basement and the crawl space. This is our energy-efficient dehumidifier that self drains itself, making this a very reliable system for years to come. This unit is also a great way to help reduce the energy costs.
