CleanSpace Encapsulation System and SaniDry Installed in Vermilion, OH
Challenge
A customer in Vermilion, OH was experiencing high humidity levels (72% R.H to be exact!) as well as a dirty, dusty crawl space. He wanted a cleaner, brighter solution that would also create healthier air for the rest of the home. He called Cleveland Basement Systems for a free, in-home assessment.
Solution
The expert inspector crawled into the crawl space to observe the condition. He noticed a lot of debris, fallen down insulation and humidity. He sat down with the customer after his assessment and recommended he get the CleanSpace Encapsulation System and the SaniDry Dehumidifier installed in his crawl space in order to mitigate these issues. The homeowner was quickly scheduled for an install date to get the work done!
On the day of the project, the installers prepped the crawl space by removing any debris and old insulation. This included getting rid of the old, thin tarp that was covering the floor of the crawl space. Then, they installed the CleanSpace drainage matting onto the floor. This dimpled polyethylene membrane allows water to flow to a sump pump or perimeter drainage system. Next, the installers rolled out the 20 mils thick, polyester cord reinforced CleanSpace onto the walls and floors of the crawl space. CleanSpace has multiple layers of plastics with puncture-free, tear-resistant and antimicrobial qualities. Most importantly, CleanSpace will keep moisture and mold out due to being a durable vapor barrier. Finally, the SaniDry Sedona was placed in the crawl space. The SaniDry can take up to 100 pints of water per day out of the crawl space air and filter the smallest of particles. One of the best pros is that the SaniDry self-drains, which means this customer doesn't need to crawl into the space to empty out all of the water, like traditional dehumidifiers!
This happy customer can now breathe in cleaner air and have peace of mind that their crawl space is protected against water damage.
