Crawlspace Humidity Control
In Durham, summer humidity is the ultimate enemy of crawlspaces. Traditional vented crawlspaces suck in hot, wet air, which condenses on cool floor joists and copper pipes. This constant moisture leads to wood rot, sagging floors, and toxic mold growth. To protect your home's structure, seal your crawlspace vents, install a heavy-duty vapor barrier, and run a dedicated crawlspace dehumidifier to keep relative humidity below 60%.
