Who this is for
For renters and owners who want a clear checklist for keeping the lowest parts of the home dry, safe and healthy.
Three tips from this guide
- Basements and crawl spaces quietly affect the air and the health of the whole home. A little attention keeps them dry and safe.
- Moisture control comes first. Keep gutters and downspouts flowing away from the foundation, keep humidity generally below 60 percent, and dry wet areas within about 24 to 48 hours.
- Store belongings on shelves or in lidded plastic bins. Watch for musty smells, damp walls, white chalky lines and a sump pump that runs constantly or not at all.
