Crawl Space
Sanidry Crawl Space Dehumidifier
Dirt crawl spaces or vented concrete crawl spaces are a never-ending source of moisture in a home. Moisture ruins houses by providing a hospitable environment for mold, fungi, and insects that destroy wood framing. Crawl space moisture affects not only the floor system directly above it, but also the entire house.
As warm air in a heated building rises, replacement air is drawn in from the lowest part of the house -- your house is actually sucking the ground. This natural upward air movement is called the "stack effect" -- it's how chimneys work. Consequently, whatever is in the air in your crawl space eventually flows up into the living sections -- up to 40% of the air we breath on the first floor was once in the crawl space. Is the air your crawl space breathable?
To avoid moisture's negative effects, install a crawl space vapor barrier to isolate your home from the ground and the humid outside air, and then condition or dehumidify the crawl space air. The SaniDry CSB crawl space dehumidifier is the best product for this job.
The SaniDry CSB has a two-stage filter system to keep the air clean. A pre-filter, for large dust particles, can be rinsed clean as needed, and a second, easy to replace, slide-in filter (yellow), that removes particles as small as two microns.
The SaniDry CSB is the perfect dehumidifier for crawl spaces or basements that experience high levels of relative humidity. The attractively designed CBS Model can be used in almost any residential or business setting where humidity control is needed. The SaniDry is designed to operate in temperatures between 55°F and 95°F, which typically include the lower temperatures found in basements and crawlspaces. The SaniDry CSB dehumidifier maintains EPA recommended relative humidity of 45% to 50% -- ideal conditions for an odor-free, dry, comfortable living and storage space.
