Dirt Crawl Space Before |
In Upper Michigan and north eastern Wisconsin there are three things that destroy materials in general, and wood in particular: water, heat, and ultra-violet radiation. Of these, water is by far the most important.
A dirt, vented or unconditioned concrete crawl space  under a home in the Michigan & Wisconsin is very unhealthy for the home and your family. The earth has very high humidity in the Michigan and Wisconsin soil. This water vapor moves easily into the crawl space and upwards into your living space. Crawl spaces do not have to be wet or flooded to be extremely unhealthy. Mold thrives in this damp environment and spreads by producing millions of airborne spores - a rare few of which are even toxic. Insects and critters of all kinds love damp environments and wet materials. Rot and decay occur in damp

Crawl Space Stack Effect | The natural airflow in a house is from bottom to top. This sucks the moist air and everything in it up into the living areas of the home. Mold spores, odors, humidity and critters create a very unhealthy environment for people. Many people are allergic to these things, and experience a host of symptoms and don't realize that their dirt crawl space is affecting their health.
Now there is a solution to dirt crawl spaces in Wisconsin and Michigan - The CleanSpace System - developed by Basement Systems, the world leader in dry basement and crawl space technology.
completely isolates your home from the earth, dramatically reducing the humidity level in the air. Lower humidity levels reduce or, in some cases, eliminate mold growth, rot, and critters from your crawl space, making the entire house healthier.

Crawl Space Encapsulation System | The liner is a heavy 20-mil-thick material, similar to a pool liner. It is manufactured in seven layers - a blend of high and low-density polyethylene, and two layers of polyester-cord reinforcement. It is blue on one side and white on the other. The bright white finished side really brightens a crawl space and allows you to easily see that your crawl space is free of mold, insects, and dirt. The CleanSpace liner is tough enough for you to crawl on it and use your crawl space for storage. Service people can crawl on it without worry of putting holes or tears in the liner. The liner completely stops moisture penetration.
