Should you keep your crawl space vents open in the summer and closed in the winter? Join Michael Church from Crawl Space Ninja as he debunks this widespread advice and offers expert insights on managing your crawl space vents in different climate conditions. You'll learn why sealing crawl space vents in the winter might not be enough to prevent cold drafts and frozen pipes, and why proper insulation and heating are essential. Michael also shares practical tips on insulating crawl space walls and using heated tape on exposed pipes to keep your home warm and energy-efficient during the colder months.
Summer brings its own set of challenges, as hot, humid air entering through open crawl space vents can lead to mold growth and structural damage. Michael explains how encapsulating your crawl space can control humidity and maintain a stable, conditioned environment year-round. Discover the benefits of using a vapor barrier, insulation, and a dehumidifier to transform your crawl space into a well-insulated, energy-efficient part of your home. Whether you're dealing with a vented or encapsulated crawl space, Michael's expertise will guide you in creating a healthier, more comfortable living environment.
