Is Crawl Space Ventilation System Good For My Crawl Space?

If your crawl area is ventilated, it is crucial that you install a vent cover or seal the vent. Although the purpose of ventilation in a crawl space was originally to improve the air quality, vents actually cause more harm than good. Moisture can enter your crawl area through the vent and build up. As a result, there is wetness and a bad odor. As we all know, mold and mildew thrive in moist environments the wet crawl space becomes the perfect breeding ground for them. The presence of rodents and dust mites is also a result of open vents. In the end, you'll have poor indoor air quality, breathing problems, and structural damage that will cost a huge amount of money to fix. Hence to avoid all the trouble it is wiser to use a vent cover or seal the vents.
