Crawl Space Encapsulation
There are three things that destroy materials in general, and wood in particular: Water, Heat and Ultra-Violet Radiation. Of these, water is the most damaging. Water causes the crawl space to become a hospitable environment for mold when humidity levels go above 40%, and we offer a state of the art solution to prevent this from ever happening.
Crawl Space Products
Weinstein Retrofitting Systems understands that the old way of crawl space design is just not adequate for a healthy, long-lasting crawl space and home. Crawl spaces all over CA suffer from mold, rot, termites, rodents, structural sagging and fatigue, and countless other problems that all stem from crawl space vents, dirt crawl spaces, and other outdated, ineffective building practices.
Vent Covers and Doors
The first step towards a clean, healthy crawl space protected from the outside hot air of the summer and cold air of the winter is to seal the crawl space openings. This will create a conditioned crawl space and the outside air will keep from creating unhealthy humidity levels.
Vapor Barrier
The Clean Space Crawl Space Vapor Barrier is a 20-mil thick polyethylene liner that’s similar to a pool liner. Your home will experience less moisture and humidity, and without outside winter cold and summer humidity, your home will be better preserved and more energy-efficient.
Clean Space Drainage Matting
Created from dimpled polyethylene matting, this drainage creates raised spaces that allow water on top of the floor to be guided by the matting to the sump pump. This keeps water from collecting under the Clean Space and ensures a healthy, effective system.
Block Wall Treatment
A proper crawl space vapor barrier in Los Angeles, California should be installed with a space left at the top around the entire edge to accommodate for this. This way, the common signs of an infestation, such as mud tubes from termite paths, can be easily sighted without needing to remove the Clean Space layer.
