What is the AquaStop™ Crawl Space Air System?
The AquaStop™ Crawl Space Air System isn’t just a dehumidifier; it’s a comprehensive moisture management solution that cleans and filters the air, controls humidity, eliminates odors, and discourages mold growth.
Tailored specifically for the unique demands of crawl spaces, it stands out for its high-capacity performance, removing up to 100 pints of water per day. By maintaining a dry environment, it curtails the risk of mold, structural damage, and infestations.
But this dehumidifier is more than just a standalone unit. It’s an integral component of a larger whole-home health strategy.
Crawl space repair often reveals the need for a holistic approach to moisture control, which includes sealing vents, installing sump pumps, and complete encapsulation with a vapor barrier. When paired with these methods, this revolutionary air system ensures that your crawl space and home remain structurally sound, healthy, and dry.
Signs You Need a Crawl Space Dehumidifier
Some common signs that a crawl space dehumidifier could help your home include:

- Elevated humidity levels
- Mold growth
- Musty odors
- Pest infestations
- Higher than usual energy bills
- Rotting wooden supports
- Sagging floors that feel bouncy and uneven
- Condensation on pipes and ductwork
- Persistent allergies or illnesses
These issues indicate your crawl space suffers from excessive moisture or drainage problems requiring immediate attention. Early detection and quick expert assistance are essential to averting more serious concerns.
Is a Crawl Space Dehumidifier Necessary?



Yes, a crawl space dehumidifier is essential to your home and family’s well-being.
Without a dehumidifier, humidity will continue to damage your home’s structure, air quality, and comfort, leading to costly repairs. Installing a dehumidifier halts current damage and protects against future issues.
While trying a DIY approach with an ordinary dehumidifier may be tempting, we don’t advise it for crawl space moisture problems. Typical consumer dehumidifiers lack the power and capacity to properly handle the large size and high humidity levels found in most crawl spaces. You’d need to constantly empty the tank since the unit would run nonstop, yet not dehumidify properly.
For the best results, trust Ohio Basement Authority’s professional crawl space dehumidification system. Our crawl space solutions address current moisture issues and prevent future problems.
What Are the Benefits of a Crawl Space Dehumidifier?
