MOISTURE CONTROL
CRAWLSPACE MOLD & MILDEW?
TERMITES?
Solve Crawlspace Humidity Issues for Good!
Studies have shown that as much as 50% of the air in your home comes up from your basement or crawlspace. This air is often higher in moisture content, and carries with it various allergens and musty odors. When conditions linger above 60% relative humidity for extended periods of time, mold, mildew, and bacteria growth is stimulated.
The American Lung Association, American Medical Association, and the EPA recommend maintaining relative humidity level in the 30% - 50% range. Ventilation and air conditioning alone cannot provide the protection offered by a high capacity dehumidifier like the Santa Fe Advance.™ Protecting your family, and your biggest investment, is worth the best.
“APPLICATION SPECIFIC” DESIGN
The
Santa Fe Advance was specifically designed for crawlspaces. The Advance’s
horizontal configuration and unique air flow perform exceptionally well
in crawlspaces. The optional
condensate pump and ducting kits can provide the installation flexibility
necessary for almost any application. No mass-merchant dehumidifier can
perform as efficiently and
effectively in crawlspaces as the Santa Fe Advance.
CONSEQUENCES OF HIGH HUMIDITY IN CRAWLSPACES
• Wet crawlspaces contribute to the cupping of wood floors and the
deterioration of floor joists,beams, sub-flooring, insulation and electrical-mechanical
systems.
• Excess moisture encourages mold growth on wood and on any other
organic material in a crawlspace.
• Crawlspaces are a major source of air infiltration that permeates
up into the living area,transmitting odors, carrying moisture, and creating
an environment conducive to molds and
dust mite infestation.
•Excess moisture can lead to major termite damage.
