The meaning of encapsulation is not as complicated as it may sound. Encapsulation is a process by which the crawl space of a home is protected from the outside air and from moisture. The encapsulation process typically includes a vapor barrier and a crawl space dehumidifier. The encapsulation benefits for a home in Tulsa are very great. Tulsa is a fairly humid place to live, so that means water from the air can get into the crawl space of the home very easily and cause damage. Too much moisture in a home’s crawl space can cause problems like mold growth and material breakdown. Since there is no way for a crawl space to dry out—there aren’t too many crawl space vents or any access to sunlight to evaporate the water—the water builds up and causes problems. Sometimes crawl space fans can help dry out the area temporarily, but really the only way to ensure that a crawl space will be safe from water damage is if the encapsulation process occurs. The encapsulation method can be different for different contractors because there are a couple ways to do it. This company does it in a very effective and simple way as to ensure that the process is fairly quick.
