Failure to encapsulate a crawlspace can lead to increased humidity, which promotes mold growth, wood rot, and pest infestations. Studies indicate that unsealed crawlspaces can contribute to indoor air quality issues, with mold spores and dust mites migrating into living areas. Additionally, moisture problems can cause structural damage that reduces the longevity of a home and increases maintenance costs.
