Seal Out Moisture & Soil Gases
While crawl spaces are prone to humidity, mold growth, musty smells and soil gas infiltration, that doesn’t make for a healthy space.
The EmeSeal System by Emecole Metro includes a wide selection of crawl space encapsulation supplies, including a robust selection of vapor barriers. The EmeSeal System's seamless installation process allows contractors to transform wet and musty crawl spaces into dry and healthy environments.
While crawl spaces are prone to humidity, mold growth, musty smells and soil gas infiltration, that doesn’t make for a healthy space.
Poor air quality within a crawl space will likely circulate to the upper levels. An encapsulated crawl space can protect the air quality throughout the entire home.
From 10 mil to 250 mil, our extensive selection crawl space liners allows contractors to encapsulate crawl spaces of just about any size or budget.
Our crawl space encapsulation accessories compliment our selection of liners to give contractors the solutions to create healthy crawl space environments.
Our seam tapes are specifically designed to bond EmeSeal System liners together. We offer multiple options to form a complete seal that stops the infiltration of moisture and soil gases. We use special backing and proprietary adhesives engineered specially for EmeSeal System liners to create an air and moisture tight barrier.
Over 50 percent of the home’s air comes from the crawl space.
As warm air rises, cool air from the crawl space is sucked into the living areas of the home. Think of the “staff effect,” similar to how a chimney works. This, combined with other factors, means a significant amount of air that homeowners breath actually comes from below-grade.
Reducing moisture, soil gases, mold and mildew goes a long way towards improving the air quality of not only the crawl space, but the entire home.
Our extensive selection of crawl space vapor barriers and installation components allows contractors a variety of options when servicing their end users. Regardless of the crawl space size, shape or budget, the EmeSeal Crawl Space System is the all-in-one solution for waterproofing contractors, in addition to remodelers or home improvement specialists.
