Crawl Space Solutions of Arkansas has recently received the bid to install CleanSpace in one of the Arkansas Health Services Buildings in Benton, Arkansas. This building is scheduled for environmental renovation, including asbestos removal and the installation of CleanSpace in the massive crawl space.

CleanSpace and SmartSumps were specifically required for this renovation by the architect and are only available through a CleanSpace Dealer from the Basement Systems Network. Crawl Space Solutions of Arkansas is such a dealer and was specifically chosen by Controlled Environmental Solutions Inc. for their expertise and experience in Closed Crawl Space Systems, or Crawl Space Encapsulation Systems, as they are sometimes called.

Although this job is a large industrial project, this same system is installed in many homes in Arkansas with moisture problems. The system consists of four basic elements, including a commercial grade vapor retarder with a 25 year warranty, a leading edge sump pump system with patented safety features, an energy star rated dehumidification system, and several components to completely seal the crawl space from the outside air, including crawl space doors, vent covers, and other air sealing features.

Currently, there are two schools of thought to alleviate mold from your crawl space and subsequently your home. Mold remediation, and crawl space encapsulation. A remediation company will remove mold through a series of steps, including cleaning, air filtration and decontamination. Removing the mold does not effectively keep mold from returning because the two things that mold needs, organic material and water vapor, are still present.

To permanently address the conditions causing the mold growth encapsulation is the solution. Encapsulation is a four step process. First, solve or fix the ground water seepage into the crawlspace. Second, isolate the house from the earth with a 20 mil thick anti-microbial vapor barrier with a 25 year warranty. Third, Seal all the outside unconditioned air form getting into the crawlspace. This can be done by using vent covers and sealing all air leaks that are present. Finally, condition or de-humidify the crawl space to reduce the humidity level. Taking these four steps is the best solution a homeowner can take to fix their Crawlspace!

Larry Janesky, Inventor, Author, and President of Basement Systems says' our dirt floor crawl spaces are the perfect environment to promote mold growth in our homes'. The natural air flow in a home is from bottom to top, so if we have mold in our crawl space, we have it in our living space as well. Many people don't realize that if they have allergies to mold, dirt floor crawl spaces are most likely part of, if not all of the problem when they are at home.

They will come and inspect the crawlspace, check to see if there is water, and measure the relative humidity at no cost to the homeowner.
