“Conditioned Crawl Space” by Cleveland home inspector Marko Vovk is explained in this short 2 minute video. Crawl space designs that have exterior ventilation also know as “vented crawl spaces: sometimes create house problems, issues and permit musty odors. Some problems that vented crawl spaces create but not limited to may be, mold, mildew, rot, deterioration, musty house odors, insect infestation, and wood boring insect activity such as termites, carpenters ants and powered post beetles. Additionally, vented crawl spaces could lead to musty cloths odors, mold growth in upper home, poor indoor air quality, heavy dust mite activity, cold floors, condensation and much more. Home inspector Marko Vovk recommends that crawl spaces that are located in cold weather zones like Ohio and most of USA America, should be conditioned crawl spaces. Conditioned crawl space designs are more desirable and would include by not limited to sealing exterior vents, heating, cooling, dehumidifying, installing a 100% sealed floor vapor barrier, installing interior perimeter insulation, and properly managing exterior water sources. Keeping gutters clean, having proper grading, moving sprinkler heads away from foundation are some exterior water management that needs to be implemented.
