Encapsulating a Crawl Space in East Longmeadow, MA

This homeowner in East Longmeadow, MA reached out to us because she wanted to replace her front door. She had a very old home, and the door had not been replaced in decades. When our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home, he discussed other home comfort problems they were experiencing. They had been experiencing drafts, and they were hopeful that that could be remedied. Our Home Comfort Specialist went down to the crawl space in the home and found that it was not encapsulated, and it had inefficient insulation that was starting to fall down.

 

We were able to help this customer! One of the solutions we utilized was our CleanSpace™ crawl space encapsulation system. We first insulated the walls using our SilverGlo™ foam insulation. For the floor, we added a dimpled drainage mat to create a thermal break. We then installed TerraBlock™ floor insulation on top of that. Then, we installed a CleanSpace™ crawl space encapsulation liner over that insulation. We fastened it into both the walls and floor to create a permanent solution for this crawl space. We then added two-part expanding spray foam to the rim joist to ensure that the crawl space was covered. Combined with our other solutions, this homeowner will experience less drafts, warmer floors, lower energy bills, and a much more comfortable home!
