Crawl Space Ventilation

Birmingham Crawl Space Ventilation Services

Improving the Indoor Air Quality of Your Home

Because your house breathes from the bottom up, you must not leave openings for outside air to come in. This allows dirty, unfiltered air from the crawl space to enter your home directly. When this happens, your family could breathe in dirt and mold particles, contributing to allergy symptoms and other health issues.

This is a major problem because most homes with crawl spaces were built under antiquated building codes. We now know that venting a crawl space creates big problems and must be handled by a skilled professional. Fortunately, the certified technicians at Ox Foundation Solutions know how to solve those problems for homeowners throughout Alabama.

Sealing any vents or areas where outside air can enter is necessary to prevent potential health issues and structural damages triggered in your crawl space. By doing so, the sealed vents will block hot or cold outside air and eliminate other unwanted elements, such as insects and moisture. Our vent covers are mechanically attached to form an airtight bond.

Ready to boost your home’s air quality? Call (205) 839-7950 today to speak to us about crawl space ventilation in Birmingham.

Awards & Affiliations

Vented Crawl Spaces Are Trouble

Contractors have always favored crawl spaces because they're faster and less expensive to build than a full-blown basement foundation. This type of traditional crawl space utilizes openings or air vents in the crawl space walls so that the air outside can circulate underneath your living space.

If there is any insulation installed, you may find it in the form of fiberglass batts, placed between crawl space joists, while the crawl space's floor will be made of soil or concrete.

Having this type of crawl space can be troublesome over time. In particular, warm and moist air enters the crawl space during the summer and condenses on the cooler crawl space surface, creating an ideal breeding ground for mold growth and wood rot.

Damp crawl spaces will also attract termites, carpenter ants, and other insects that can harm your home. In winter, the floors become too cold because of wet or missing insulation, meaning higher heating bills.
