vapor barrier el cerrito

A vapor barrier is a layer of impermeable material that prevents moisture from damaging a structure. Vapor barriers play a key role in homes in El Cerrito, Berkeley, San Rafael, surrounding areas as they can help to keep your crawlspace from becoming damp or wet. The main goal of any vapor barrier is to slow the mitigation of water vapor. Vapor barriers differ from air barriers, however, in that they do not slow the mitigation of air.

The Importance of Controlling Moisture

Moisture in the home can come along with a number of different problems, many of which can affect the health and safety of you and your family. Consider mold, for example, which is something that no one wants in their home. Mold isn’t the only issue, however, as moisture can also elevate the growth of dust mites, insects and other pests. Moisture can even degrade the structural integrity of your home, especially if fiberglass insulation has been installed.

Perhaps the biggest concern of moisture in the crawlspace is that of poor indoor air quality. When air quality suffers, so too do those who live in the home. The dangers are especially prevalent for those who suffer from asthma or other respiratory illnesses, and the problem will only get worse if unaddressed.

By keeping moisture at bay, you can effectively work towards improving indoor air quality in your home, and a vapor barrier may be the answer you’re looking for.
