4 Reasons to Install Dehumidifier in Your Crawl Space 1 Energy Efficiency As you can surmise, when you dehumidify the air in your crawl space, the air in your living area can be maintained much more easily. 2 Health As stated above, your home gets its air from the crawl space through the stack effect. This air can contain a variety of allergens that can cause issues such as breathing problems, headaches eye irritation, or other, more serious illnesses. 3 Comfort Health and energy savings aside, it’s a no-brainer to want a low level of humidity in your home. This will let you sleep or work without having to be sticky and uncomfortable. 4 Structural Stability Remember, your crawl space most likely has supports, studs and joists made of wood. When the humidity level is higher than 70% that moisture gets into the wood and starts breaking it down. www.drcrawlspace.com
