Crawl Space Ventilation

Since a crawl space is completely exposed to the ground, it is extremely susceptible to collecting moisture and water. An average home’s foundation walls absorb as much as 10-15 gallons of water vapor each day. Moisture will rise throughout the rest of your home by “Stack Effect,” causing problems such as:

• Musty odors
• Rot
• Mold growth

You can address the problem directly by replacing the air that circulates in your crawl space. Keep reading below to learn more about crawl space ventilation Northern Virginia.

How to Ventilate Your Crawl Space

Foundation Medix installs an EZ Breathe ventilation device which removes the moist crawl space air and replaces it with fresh air from the upper floors of the house. This device removes mold spores, musty odors, gallons of water vapor, and other dangerous particles from your home, all by simply replacing the air that circulates. The EZ Breathe system does not require relatively any maintenance after installation and increases the electric bill by only $2 – $4 per month. This is a solid investment when you think about the money you would have to spend fixing serious damage or in hospital bills for family members affected by mold. We also offer EZ Breathe devices for garages and basements, so all of your home’s major spaces are covered.
