A lot of people don't realize that it is important to fix their crawl space because they rarely go in it. There are many reasons why you should fix it:
- A vented dirt crawl space costs 15% in heating and cooling energy bills.
- Mold on the floor joists and subfloor are expensive to get rid of.
- Mold discourage prospective buyers if you plan on selling the house.
- Humidity is dangerous for your health.
- Floor joists, girders and sill plates are rotted and need to be replaced.
- A humid crawl space often has rodents, termites, and other pests.
- You need more storage place.
Overall, if you consider all of these factors, not fixing your crawl space costs more than fixing it. Installing a CleanSpace system is an investment that will pay off in the future by making your environment healthier, more valuable, more useful and that will cost less in the energy consumption.
