Description

Part 5 of 6 - March 30, 2023 (9am - 11am) Some decisions are easy; covering dirt floors in crawlspaces is one of them. Whether you are venting your crawlspace or not, the durability and air quality in most homes is improved by covering the dirt floor. Moisture control is the primary outcome.

Gavin Healy, of Balance Point Home Performance, will review real world installs of ground cover to meet different performance outcomes.
