Mold in a Crawl Space in Santa Clause, IN

Positioned in Santa Clause, IN, a home needed a mold-free crawlspace to relieve existing allergies and remove mold that was appearing on the walls from the floor above the crawlspace. In some situations, a crawlspace will pose as an "out of sight, out of mind" place and is left uninspected. A moldy crawlspace will have damp air with smelly mold spores. The mold reaches from the floor above through either the HVAC system or the stack effect. The stack effect creates airflow in the home from the bottom to the top. Air from the crawl space is drawn upward into the first floor and then the second floor. The same air from the crawl space makes up about half of what you breathe. Being informed about the dangers of mold will help homeowners be aware of their health and their homes.

There is a process to follow for mold removal. Mold is scrubbed off all parts of the crawl space and then taken care of through mold remediation. A Smart Sump was installed to remove excess water, and an installation of CleanSpace was put in. A SaniDry Sedona was installed to create dry airflow, making mold survival and population difficult. An exterior crawl space door is used to close a vent in the crawlspace to banish outside air from entering. The process was completed successfully, additionally, creating a clean and safe atmosphere for the couple to continue living in.
