Toxic mold just
could be the #1 health concern in the Southeast
US, because it thrives in moist environments
and crawl spaces.
Building science experts agree that a ventilated
crawlspace is a bad idea. Due to rock or clay
soil, drainage in much of the Southeast is often
times very poor. The important thing is to protect
yourself and your home from the ill affects
from mold and moisture.
Getting your crawlspace permanently treated
and sealed could be the most important decision
you ever made with home ownership. Health
affects from mold can include: immune system
suppression, dermatitis, headaches, chest pains,
respiratory illness, sinus problems, dry cough,
and many more.
Our first priority at PureAir Systems; therefore,
is insulation removal and wood treatment. Whether
we are considering the subfloor of the crawlspace
or any other wood structures; initially we properly
prepare the wood surfaces and then apply our
permanent guaranteed adhesive mold block. This
protects the wood against mold and wood decay
with a 25 year warranty.
Secondly, we remove
debris from the dirt floor and treat it with
an anti-microbial solution. Once the dirt is
prepared we encapsulate it with the PureAir
vapor free liner to all peirs, foundation walls
etc so that the crawlspace is sealed better
than a concrete basement. Finally we seal all
the crawlspace vents.
Third the foam sealed insulation in the basement
or crawl space can be spray applied right over
the treated wood. This high performance closed
cell foam seals out air, moisture and contaminants
while providing incredible power bill savings.
As a homeowner or especially a home buyer or
seller you to have a professional mold inspection.
Even if a home looks great, you cannot tell
if it has mold issues just by looking, it must
be tested. Mold requires a food source, which
usually means wood or drywall, much of which
can be hidden behind wall cavities or other
structures .
PureAir Systems also provides professional
installation of central air HEPA filtration
and UVC sanitation. Our professional central
air dehumidification systems can control relative
humidity down to a very healthy 45% at all times. |
