What is crawlspace encapsulation?
Crawlspace encapsulation is a comprehensive moisture control system that transforms your Franklin home's crawlspace from a potential source of problems into a clean, dry, and healthy environment. This process involves sealing the crawlspace from ground moisture and outside air using vapor barriers, insulation, and controlled ventilation to create a conditioned space beneath your home. Unlike traditional vented crawlspaces that allow outside air and moisture to enter freely, an encapsulated crawlspace becomes part of your home's controlled environment.
The encapsulation process addresses the root causes of crawlspace moisture problems that are common in Franklin's clay soil and humid climate. By installing heavy-duty vapor barriers on the ground and walls, sealing air leaks, and controlling humidity levels, encapsulation prevents the moisture issues that lead to mold growth, wood rot, pest infestations, and poor indoor air quality. The result is a crawlspace that actively protects your home's structural integrity while improving energy efficiency and indoor air quality year-round.
