Crawlspace Dehumidifiers
Excessive humidity in a crawlspace spells disaster. It leads to mold growth, air quality issues, and can compromise your health and home. Even an encapsulated crawlspace needs humidity control. A dehumidifier maintains moisture levels and prevents problems like mold and mildew growth.
Signs your crawlspace may need a dehumidifier include:
- Mold growth on girders, floor joists and the subfloor
- Musty smells
- Buckling of your hardwood floors
- Allergies or asthma and frequent headaches
- Mold growth in other areas
- High humidity in the crawlspace
- Puddling water
- Damaged wood
- Condensation on pipes
- Pest infestations
- High energy costs
- Wet and sagging insulation
- Ruined stored items
If you notice these issues, you should install a dehumidifier in your crawlspace. A dehumidifier can help protect and prolong the life of your HVAC unit by reducing moisture levels in your crawlspace, preventing rust and corrosion on metal components. By controlling humidity, a dehumidifier ensures your HVAC system operates efficiently and prolongs its life. Additionally, it will prevent fungi from reappearing, and keep your insulation healthy and dry.
