Encapsulation is only PART of the moisture-control equation. 💧
One of the mistakes we see is a crawlspace that has been sealed up beautifully… but there’s no dehumidifier installed to actually control the humidity inside that newly enclosed space.
High humidity can lead to:
⚠️ Mold and mildew growth
⚠️ Musty odors
⚠️ Condensation on ductwork and surfaces
⚠️ Moisture in floor joists and subflooring
⚠️ Wood deterioration over time
⚠️ A crawlspace that still feels damp despite being encapsulated
Think of it this way:
Encapsulation helps KEEP moisture out.
A properly sized dehumidifier helps REMOVE the moisture that still gets in.
If you're investing in an encapsulation system, make sure you're investing in the humidity control that helps the entire system do its job.
