How it works
Helitech’s Crawl Space Encapsulation System is designed to separate your home and the moisture-prone ground below. This multi-layer system will prevent water retention and high humidity, which are ideal conditions for mold, rot, musty smells, and allergens. By installing a durable, puncture-resistant liner, Helitech protects your crawl space from harmful mold growth, pest infestations, and structural damage, helping to maintain your family’s health and home’s stability. Helitech provides effective and permanent crawl space protection, restoring homeowners peace of mind.
Our encapsulation system is a complete water protection system that can be installed in your crawl space. These areas of your home often retain moisture, bringing humidity levels to well over 50%, and combined with low lighting, they are ideal places for mold and other bacteria to thrive. The Crawl Space Encapsulation System prevents the possibility of these growths.
Our system is a thick material, similar to what is used to line swimming pools. It actually consists of several layers of high-density polyethylene, low-density polyethylene, and two layers of polyester cord.
Helitech’s encapsulation is tough and puncture-resistant. You can crawl on it, service technicians can crawl on it, and you can store any item on it. Helitech will transform your former unusable crawl space into a clean, dry, and ample storage space for your home.
Our crawl space encapsulation completely resists moisture penetration and stops unwanted insects and rodents. The white finish will actually brighten your crawl space with limited light, creating a friendlier storage environment.
The installation time for crawl space encapsulation can vary depending on the size and condition of your crawl space. Typically, a professional installation by Helitech can be completed within one to three days for minimal disruption to your home. Our team works efficiently to ensure a thorough and effective encapsulation.
One of the significant benefits of crawl space encapsulation is its easy maintenance. Once installed, the durable, multilayer barrier requires minimal upkeep. We recommend occasional inspections to ensure the system remains intact and free from debris, but generally, it’s designed for long-lasting, worry-free protection.
Helitech’s crawl space encapsulation system is built with high-quality, puncture-resistant materials designed for longevity. With proper installation and minimal care, our encapsulation systems are engineered to provide decades of protection against moisture, pests, and structural issues, offering a long-term solution for your home.
While a vapor barrier is a component of crawl space encapsulation, they are not the same. A vapor barrier primarily covers the ground to block moisture from rising. Encapsulation, however, is a more comprehensive system that completely seals off the crawl space from the outside environment, covering the ground, walls, and often including dehumidification and drainage solutions for complete moisture control.
