Mold is a common issue with untreated crawl spaces. Whenever the crawl space is not properly sealed, such as in a Birdseye, IN home, mold can irritate homeowners with asthma or allergies. Long exposure to mold can cause asthma in someone who never had it before. There was standing water in the crawl space and humidity lingered in the air. The water needed to be controlled while humidity needed to be banished by creating a dry airflow. The homeowner was ready to remove any mold in the crawl space in hopes of protecting their health. To seal the crawl space away from outdoor air, CleanSpace is laid across the floor. CleanSpace is a 20 mil liner with an antimicrobial additive manufactured into the material, preventing mold growth on the liner. This is odorless and safe. All mold was scrubbed and sprayed away through mold remediation. To prevent water from having the ability to remain on the ground, CleanSpace acts as a protective layer that not only keeps the crawl space protected from water vapor, but it will direct any water flow from the ground, towards the SmartSump. The SmartSump will continue to pump out water away from the home. The SaniDry Sedona is the best solution for dehumidifying the space. It creates a constant dry airflow and will empty any water vapor outdoors.
A homeowner in Junction, IL, reached out to us regarding his leaking basement. The basement was used as extra storage space. After heavy rainfall, the homeowner noticed that the basement started leaking water through the walls and sat on the basement floor. This action caused the space to leave a musty smell and worries that the basement would be unsafe for more storage if it isn't repaired soon. The basement would need waterproofing done along with something to permanently stabilize the walls that seemed to bow due to the soil being moved during the rainfall.
The basement walls were covered using CleanSpace. When CleanSpace is put on the walls, it will prevent water vapor from escaping into the environment, causing humidity or mold. If any water finds its way inside, it will be directed towards the WaterGuard system that is put in the ground below. The Water Guard system will direct the water to the UltraSump pump that will empty the water out and away from the home. Once the waterproofing system is completed, the walls are permanently straightened using the PowerBrace System. This will prevent any soil outside the home from creating a bowing wall in the basement.
A couple's home was built in December, located in Boonville, IN, where moisture and condensation were the main concerns. To fix moisture in a crawlspace, a SmartSump pump, CleanSpace, Silverglo, and SaniDry are installed. An important tip to remember is that if the light is visible in a crawl space, then outside air is leaking in. The Sump pump will get rid of any water that is found in the crawlspace. Silverglo paneling has tiny graphite particles in its foam insulation to give it a silver/gray shine. These particles reflect heat and lower the material's conductivity and result in energy savings. CleanSpace is laid out to protect the crawlspace from outside air leaks. The SaniDry Crawl Space Air System is situated to filter air and dehumidify at a high-efficiency rate. The couple will now have peace of mind knowing that they have a permanent solution to having a healthier living environment for their family.
In Petersburg, IN, a homeowner was concerned about the health of their basement when it was discovered that water was in the crawl space of their home. Upon further inspection, cobwebs were existent in some areas of the crawl space. If spiders are finding a way inside the crawl space, then it is a sign that more critters can survive. Dust mites are something to watch out for in a crawl space. People with asthma and allergies will react to dust mite droppings.
To the prevention of spiders and other critters from reaching into the crawl space, the area is sealed with CleanSpace.
A couple in Evansville reached out to Healthy Spaces, in need of basement waterproofing. The wife has health issues ad was worried about mold being able to grow since the basement was humid and wet. It was smart that the homeowners wanted to take action before the problem worsened. If the basement continues to be humid and wet without treatments, then mold will be able to thrive, affecting the health of the homeowners, especially those with allergies or asthma. The homeowners were ready to transform their basement into a livable place and peace of mind.
To protect the environment of the basement, CleanSpace is installed on the walls. This will protect against water vapor. Mold remediation was performed to remove any mold that was growing or could grow on the surfaces of the basement. To create a constant dry airflow that would eliminate the ability of mold to survive, as well as humidity, the SaniDry Sedona was hooked up and ready to run! A WaterGuard system was installed alongside the walls to catch the water that would leak into the basement and flow down the CleanSpace Once the water is in the WaterGuard, it will flow towards the sump pump that was installed. It thrilled the homeowners to see a dry basement and not have to worry another day about the potential danger to their health.
