Unsealed crawl spaces can affect your entire home.
Many homes have crawl spaces that unfortunately are ignored by builders and homeowners alike. They represent the out-of-site, out-of-mind, unlivable area that is not even considered a part of your home or living environment. As we research more about health in the home, we have discovered that this is not the case. You share your living environment with your crawl space.
As heat rises throughout your home, cool air from your crawl space is sucked up into your home, similar to a chimney. Based on a typical home in the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that the air in your home is replaced almost every hour and about 50% of that “new air” comes from your crawl space. The quality of air in your home is greatly affected by the condition of your crawl space. It might be out-of-sight and out-of-mind, but it is a great part of your living environment and quality of air that you and your children breathe.
