Crawl Space Ventilation

If you don't have a solid concrete foundation underneath your home, you have a crawl space, which is an open area. This crawl space can accumulate moisture, even more so if you live in a humid climate. The more that moisture builds up, the more likely it is to get into the floors and walls of your home. It can cause the structure of your home to rot away.

If you want to protect your home from mold, rot, and decay, you need to make sure that your crawl space is properly vented. We at Glenn Mechanical know the importance of a sufficiently installed ventilation system underneath your house. We have the knowledge and the expertise to talk with you about your venting needs and make the installation of the system to your home without a hitch.

Crawl Space Ventilation Options:

• Simply adding vents can create the circulation of air that your home needs. It is the most inexpensive way to go. The more vents you have, the more air is being circulated.
• Automatic or manual fans can be installed within the crawl space area. These fans would remove dampness from the area.
• Crawl space dehumidifiers are what you need if you live in an extremely humid environment or already have moisture-related damage.
• Vapor Barriers are specially engineered fabrics that are hung in the crawl space and are designed to catch the moisture in the air.

Call us today to talk about your crawl space ventilation needs. If you are already experiencing moisture-related problems or are building your home, you can trust our technicians. We will talk with you about what options fit your home the best without selling you something that you don't need.
