Why ERVs Don't Belong in Crawlspaces: What Actually Works to Keep It Dry


Listen Later

ERVs (Energy Recovery Ventilators) are popular for improving indoor air. When it comes to crawlspaces, they can do more harm than good when used to dry a crawlspace out. In this episode, I explain why using an ERV to dry a crawlspace is a flawed strategy that can make moisture and mold problems worse — and what you might do instead.

You'll learn:

  • Why ERVs can introduce humidity instead of removing it
  • The science behind moisture control in unconditioned spaces
  • Smarter strategies for drying crawlspaces (that actually work)

Crawlspace issues can be complex. If you've got questions, schedule a consult:
