Crawl Space Moisture Too High

The crawlspace of this Hilton Head Island, SC property was extremely damp, which contributed to floor problems. A year ago, the subfloor was newly built and insulated with spray foam. Within a year, the wood moisture levels had escalated to the point that spray foam was peeling off the wood in several places and falling down in the crawl space. The underlying issue was moisture entering the crawlspace via the walls and ground, significantly elevating the humidity. Mold development and wood rot can begin when the relative humidity rises over 60%. Our inspector came out to the house for a free examination to completely examine the problem. The humidity level was measured at just above 80%. To fix the problem, our inspector suggested using the CleanSpace Encapsulation System. Our crew installed the system, sealing out the moisture and controlling the humidity level to preserve the floor.
