Dry air in a crawl space is important for several reasons. The humidity is bad for the respiratory health of people who live in the house because the moist air aggravates the symptoms of asthma and allergies. Dry air offers better air quality and a more comfortable environment.
If you dry the air in the crawl space, the air rises throughout the house and makes it dry. In addition, moist air is expensive to cool. A SaniDry dehumidifier like the one we have installed at this customer's house allows you to dry and lighten the air in the crawl space and therefore throughout the house. Therefore it will cost you less to heat or cool.
The SaniDry dehumidifier is rated EnergyStar.
When a crawl space is wet or humid, it will support the growth of mold, mildew, and rot. As this mold damages the structural wood in your home, the structure can begin to sag.
This is why we needed to encapsulate this crawl space in Ste-Anne-De-Sorel, Qc.
We have installed a CleanSpace liner to lock out any moisture coming in, and our dehumidifier known as the SaniDry Sedona which is a self-draining system that eliminates the chore of emptying collection trays, while an air filter eliminates particles from the air as small as 2 microns!
A client from Bedford, Quebec, contacted us about water infiltration in their crawl space during heavy rain. After a free, no-obligation inspection, our specialist Karim proposed a solution: complete encapsulation and a new sump pump system. Our production team installed the SuperSump® Premier Sump Pump System with a durable cast-iron pump, an alarm, and a child-safe, airtight lid. They also added the CleanSpace® Crawl Space Drainage Matting System to direct water to the sump pump and the CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier, a 20mil thick, 7-layer barrier that reduces moisture and humidity. With these installations, our client no longer worries about crawl space water issues.

Facing a damp and humid crawl space in Saint-Norbert, the homeowner contacted us for assistance. It was clear that the crawl space needed perfect insulation and encapsulation to avoid any further structural damage.
We installed our CleanSpace drainage matting, followed by our CleanSpace vapor barrier in order to successfully encapsulate the crawl space and protect the house from further humidity issues. We also installed one SmartJack support beam as the rim joist above was showing signs of rot. Our SmartJack beams will prevent any sagging floor above.
