Dr. Energy Saver Of Connecticut Case Studies: Crawl Space Encapsulation in Seymour, CT
Challenge
This Seymour, CT home's crawl space was not properly waterproofed or insulated. The hot air in the crawl space was leaking into the rooms above, creating uncomfortable temperatures throughout the home. Improperly insulated crawl spaces are usually very humid, and have high levels of moisture. This allows mold and mildew to thrive, which can be hazardous to not only your home, but your health as well. This Seymour homeowner gave us a call at Dr. Energy Saver, and had us update their crawl space!
Solution
In order to address this home's problematic crawl space, we sealed it off with our energy-saving crawl space system. Our CleanSpace vapor barrier is installed on the flooring over a drainage matting, depending if the crawl space has water leakage or not. For the cold walls, we installed our SilverGlo Insulation. It comes equipped with a radiant heat barrier that reflects your home's heat back into the crawl space. This helps save the house's energy by bringing the heat back to its source, and reduces the transfer of unwanted warmth. For the high moisture levels, our SaniDry CX Dehumidifier was installed. Designed to fit into any crawl space, it is ENERGY STAR rated, comes with a written warranty, and installs quickly. This family couldn't be happier with their new crawl space. They now have full control over the environment beneath their home.
