What is a Vapor Barrier?
Most homes with crawl spaces have their crawl space exposed to the bare ground. Vapor barriers are a thick, plastic material that is affixed to the crawl space and the support posts that prevent moisture from entering through the dirt below into the house above. When groundwater enters the crawl space, or when water vapors rise from the groundwater into the crawl space, it can create humid, moist conditions.
This moisture and humidity can lead to the growth of mold and mildew, and the resulting mold spores will get into the air of your home that you breathe. Due to the principles of the Stack Effect, air is pushed upward throughout the home, and over 40% of the air on the first floor comes from the crawl space. If your crawl space is growing mold and mildew, those toxic spores can get into your lungs and aggravate your allergies. Humid conditions in your crawl space also allow dust mites to thrive in your home, and dust mites cause what we know as the dust allergy.
Humid, moist conditions also allow pests like roaches, silverfish and mice to thrive inside the crawl space, and these pests can later make their way into your home. A good vapor barrier can prevent standing water and water vapor from entering your crawl space, protecting the air quality of your home.
