Crawl Space Encapsulation Solution in Mont-Royal, QC
Challenge
Our client, Mr. Bras, was facing humidity problems, a common but insidious issue that can affect the structure of the house and encourage mold growth in various areas. Bad odors, general discomfort, and very cold floors prompted the homeowners to seek a durable solution. Having lived in the house for only a year, they had already observed several obvious signs of humidity inside their home.
Resolution
Aware of the importance of effectively protecting the crawl space, Mr. Bras decided to consult a specialist at Sous-Sol Confort. After a thorough assessment and personalized recommendations, the homeowners decided to proceed with the necessary work.
A few days later, our team visited the site to perform the required installations. After a detailed inspection, we proposed the following solutions:
- Crawl Space Encapsulation:
- Application of Delta MS and Pro-Vapor 20 mm membranes to create an effective barrier against humidity. These robust membranes isolate the crawl space, preventing moisture from entering and thus protecting the structure of the house.
- Thermal Insulation:
- Installation of thermal insulation panels on the walls to optimize the energy efficiency of the home and reduce heat loss.
- Installation of a SumPlus Sump Pump:
- To evacuate the water collected by the drain, we installed a SumPlus sump pump equipped with a backup power supply. This system ensures continuous operation even during a power outage. An integrated alarm also notifies residents if the backup pump is activated, providing optimal peace of mind.
Result
Thanks to these interventions, the residents no longer face bad odors or cold floors. Their home now benefits from durable protection against humidity, providing a healthy, comfortable, and energy-efficient indoor environment.
