Lowcountry Basement Systems presents:
There is a MONSTER in your crawlspace.
It is slowly eating your house, from the bottom up.
Making your family sick.
What’s the monster in your crawl space?
FACT: Moisture in a crawl space favors mold growth.
FACT: Moldy crawl spaces decrease property value by an average of 10%
Wet crawl spaces are energy vampires!
FACT: Humid air is harder to cool and heat.
FACT: Due to the “stack effect,” the air in your crawl space is continuously sucked upstairs.
Hot air rises and escapes through the
upper levels.
Stack Effect:
New air is sucked in from
the lower levels.
Stack Effect:
You are paying big $$$ to cool and heat all that air!
Air ducts in a damp crawl space?Up to 50%! Energy loss!
It gets worse:1/3 of the air you breathe
upstairs comes from the crawl space.
Crawl space air carries odors, mold spores and
dust mite pellets upstairs.
Dust mite pellets: #1 trigger of indoor allergies in the U.S.
Mold Spores: #2 trigger of indoor allergies in the U.S.
What is the solution?
Open more vents to dry out the crawl space!
“Crawl space vents are a building science fallacy.”
- Craig Dewitt, PhD.
FACT:
When warm outside air enters a cold crawl space,
Relative Humidity increases!
These are the results of
venting the crawl space.
You don’t have to take our word for it:
The Solution:
Healthy Crawl Space = Greener Home and Lower Energy Bills!
FACT: Homes with encapsulated crawl spaces are on average 18% more
energy efficient.
