Crawlspace encapsulation in Adstock Qc

Problem

- Bad odors were spreading from the crawlspace.

- Excessive moisture had led to the formation of mold spots, making the air unhealthy.

- The existing pump was not in a sump pit, and struggled to remove infiltrated water.

Solution

- Installation of the SmartSump system: We dug into the ground to install the pump system's receptacle. In addition to the powerful Zoeller pump, the SmartSump system includes a lid and a sealed drain, as well as an alarm to warn in case of potential flooding danger.

- Implementing our perimeter drainage, along with our CleanSpace vapor barrier on top: The perimeter drainage has an alveolus surface that helps transporting infiltrated water to the sump pump. Furthermore, our vapor barrier prevents water from evaporating into the air and inhibits mold growth.

- Installing the SilverGlo thermal insulation on the crawl space walls. It has a radiant barrier that reflects heat inside the crawl space for energy savings.
