GIVEN ATTENTION TO YOUR CRAWL SPACE LATELY?
It's no homeowner's favorite place, but it can have a huge impact on your entire home.
When’s the last time you’ve checked in on your crawl space? Probably not recently. Out of sight, out of mind; that’s the general attitude. But there are several reasons why homeowners should check on them on a regular basis. Crawl spaces are dark, musty, and oftentimes moist. Being underground, crawl spaces are breeding grounds for the following pleasantries when neglected:
- Moisture- moisture and mold have the potential to rot structural elements, seep into the house and torment your indoor air quality
- Dust and dirt- dust and dirt are prime vehicles for holding moisture and have the ability to infiltrate into your home if your HVAC pipes or ducts reside in your crawl space.
- Rodents and insects- if they call your crawl space home, it spells trouble for any vapor barriers, insulation or ducts resting down there that they could chew and allow their residue to infiltrate your home’s air
