Crawl Space During Inspection
During the inspection we could see the old vapor barrier not working, it is covered in mud, Moisture on the wall is also visible and making the dirt at the bottom of the wall muddy.
Moisture Issues
In this photo you can see the water is leaking through the cavities in the concrete block wall. You can tell by the water lines at the bottom of the block.
Water Intrusion
Water is clearly visible on the crawl space floor. It was very muddy.
StarPipe Crawl Space Drainage System
StarPipe™ is designed to be an easily installed conduit to accept water from the soil and surface of perimeter walls of your crawl space and drain to a sump system, allowing the water to quickly evacuate from the crawl space.
Drainage Matting Installed
Drainage matting forms a permanent seal for leaking crawl space floors.
Piers Wrapped in CleanSpace
Piers are wrapped in CleanSpace® poly to create a continuous air and moisture barrier.
CleanSpace Installed
One key ingredient in our encapsulation system is the CleanSpace® vapor barrier, a super-durable 20-mil plastic sheet designed to permanently prevent moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space.
TripleSafe Sump Pump
A TripleSafe® Sump Pump System (shown here), combined with a SaniDry® dehumidifier, represents the ultimate in crawl space waterproofing and humidity control.
Vents Sealed
Sealing your crawl space vents stops the cycle of cold, humidity, and moisture entering from the outside air.
The SaniDry Sedona
Mold and mildew are common in crawl spaces, but the Sedona keeps the relative humidity below 55%, so mold won't stand a chance. As a high-efficiency dehumidifier, the Sedona removes more moisture (100 pints per day) for less electricity cost than conventional models.
IceGuard and LawnScape System
Water escapes from the IceGuard® fitting only when the discharge line becomes clogged. Otherwise, water flows past the slotted openings into the drain pipe. LawnScape™ is a pipe buried from the downspout to a special LawnScape™ outlet that lets the water out onto the surface while camouflaging the end of the pipe. The lid comes off for easy cleaning. LawnScape™ is best used for downspout extensions over 8' long.
