It's rare to venture into the crawlspace frequently, mainly due to its dim, cramped conditions and the pervasive dirt, dust, and mold that characterize it. Yet, the importance of this neglected space cannot be overstated, as approximately 60% of the air circulating throughout our homes originates from it, driven by the principles of the stack effect. Acknowledging this reality underscores the necessity of establishing a robust moisture, vapor, and thermal barrier within the crawlspace. This barrier isn't just about structural integrity; it's about safeguarding indoor air quality and fostering a healthier home environment.  Encapsulation is widely regarded as the most effective solution for addressing the challenges posed by crawlspaces. By encapsulating the crawlspace, a durable barrier is installed, typically consisting of a thick, polyethylene liner that covers the ground and walls. This barrier effectively seals off the crawlspace from the external elements, preventing moisture intrusion, reducing the entry of contaminants, and minimizing heat loss or gain. Additionally, encapsulation helps to create a cleaner and more controlled environment within the crawlspace, ultimately contributing to improved indoor air quality and overall home comfort.
