Seal in success with vapor barrier installation.
If you’ve noticed an unusual smell, an increase in moisture, or a build-up of condensation in your Woodbury home, your insulation may be the problem.
Air always contains water, and when the temperature is higher it retains even more water. When the temperature drops, the air will contain too much vapor and turn into condensation. This condensation can appear in your insulation material and lead to rotting, which can then add a smell to your list of problems.
Without a vapor barrier, your insulation is vulnerable to retaining moisture that may then damage your home. A vapor barrier installed over the floor of your crawlspace offers security and unparalleled performance. In some cases, this may be all you need to mitigate your potential risk of issues.
At Complete Insulation we use Viper CS, produced by ISI Building Products. The manufacturing process here is second to none and sees it begin with premium quality virgin resin that doesn’t contain any recycled content that is prone to breakage. This means that it resists punctures and tears during installation to ensure its efficiency. Viper CS also will not break down over time, making it a great investment for your home. It is cross-woven and odor-free, and contains a moisture barrier and a radon barrier.
With Complete Insulation as your vapor barrier installation provider, you can rest assured your home is in great hands. Available in either 6.5ML or 10ML, we seal the vapor barrier to the exterior perimeter walls and mechanically fasten it for long-term, high-performance security.
A vapor barrier acts as a sealant around your insulation to keep it performing as effectively as possible. As water can seep in through the walls of your home, a vapor barrier prevents this from happening and stops moisture developing and potentially becoming a health hazard.
A vapor retarder is made from 6ML black polyethylene, whereas a vapor barrier must have a vapor permeance of less than .001. As a vapor retarder does not meet this requirement, it is less effective.
While it may be possible for you to install a vapor barrier yourself, this is a complex procedure that requires intermediate skills. Special attention is needed when sealing, and if the finish is not perfected, it will render your vapor barrier useless. We recommend your vapor barrier is installed by professionals.
