Homeowner Achieves Dry Crawl Space in Lenhartsville

Challenge

Problem: A homeowner in Lenhartsville, PA, was experiencing persistent high humidity, moisture, and mold growth within their crawl space. This issue negatively impacted the home's air quality and posed a threat to its structural integrity. Concerned about potential damage and health implications, the homeowner sought a professional solution.

Solution

Solution: Liberty Basement Systems was contacted and promptly scheduled a detailed inspection. Our System Design Specialist identified inadequate ventilation and a lack of proper sealing as the primary causes of the moisture problems. To address this, we recommended and implemented a comprehensive solution:

• CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System: A durable, waterproof liner was meticulously installed to create a robust barrier against moisture intrusion from the ground and outside air. This effectively sealed off the crawl space, preventing water vapor from entering and providing a physical shield against mold and mildew growth.
• SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier: A high-efficiency dehumidifier was installed to actively regulate the humidity levels within the encapsulated crawl space. By maintaining optimal dryness, the SaniDry Sedona prevents the resurgence of mold, mildew, and musty odors, ensuring a consistently healthy environment. 

• Outcome: Following the installation, the homeowner reported a significant improvement in their home's air quality. The noticeable reduction in humidity resulted in a dryer and healthier indoor environment throughout the house. The transformation of the crawl space into a dry, usable area not only addressed the moisture issues but also contributed to the long-term structural integrity of the home and the potential for lowered energy bills.

  Conclusion: This case highlights Liberty Basement Systems' commitment to providing tailored, effective solutions for homeowners facing crawl space challenges. By combining our industry-leading CleanSpace encapsulation system with the powerful SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, we successfully eliminated moisture issues, improved air quality, and created a healthier, more stable home environment for the Lenhartsville homeowner. This project underscores our dedication to delivering reliable and long-lasting results that meet the unique needs of each customer.
