A: Any dampness or moisture in a crawlspace is bad for the home because it can lead to mold growth, wood rot and insect and rodent infestations. Standing water only increases these problems. Because air moves upward in a home, everything in your crawlspace finds its way upstairs, making for increased indoor allergens and overall less healthy living conditions. The solution is the ’58 Crawlspace encapsulation system that keeps moisture outside and dry, clean air inside.
