Sure-Dry Case Studies: Crawl Space Encapsulation and Insulation in Cascade, WI
Challenge
The crawl space of this home in Cascade, WI had several issues. Moisture getting into the crawl space was creating mold, causing insulation to "drip", damaging the wood floor joists and creating a foul smell throughout the home. Because the crawl space wasn't properly sealed, these homeowners were also losing a lot of heat through the crawl space walls.
Solution
To fix the moisture issues of this crawl space, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier System. The CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier System is a durable, bright white crawl space liner that installs on the walls and floors, preventing water vapor and humidity from passing through. By keeping your crawl space dry, you protect your structure and insulation from mold and rot.
To make the crawl space more energy efficient, Sure-Dry installed their SilverGlo™ Crawl Space Wall Insulation panels. In addition to resisting heat conduction, SilverGlo™ boasts a radiant barrier, which reflects heat back into your crawl space for ultimate energy savings. SilverGlo™ crawl space insulation can also be installed on the perimeter of your floor framing system (rim joist) for maximum energy savings.
