ATMOX CRAWLSPACE MOISTURE CONTROL SYSTEM
Controlling the moisture in your crawl space is important to the life of your home. High moisture can lead to warped floors, odors, mold, and more. To combat this most basement waterproofing companies suggest that homeowners and business owners encapsulate their crawl space. We do not recommend this for various reasons. Most of all, encapsulation doesn’t stop moisture in the crawl space, it simply hides it. This is why we here at Basement Technologies recommend the Atmox System. The Atmox system is a crawl space system that is comprised of four defenses against water in your crawl space; ventilation, circulation, dehumidifying, and control. This system is a technical system that has to be installed correctly to work as intended. We are experts at Atmox system installations and can build your system the way it should be in order for it to work at its peak efficiency in keeping moisture out of your crawl space.
BENEFITS OF ATMOX
VENTILATION
When it comes to moisture control there is such a thing as good air and bad air. With the Atmox system you will get a ventilation system that will constantly monitor your crawl space’s humidity level. If the air inside the crawl space is more humid than the air outside then the system will open the vents and automatically vent the air inside the crawl space to the outside. If the air inside the crawl space is better then the Atmox system will shut the vents to keep the air inside at the peak humidity level. This is all done automatically, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!
VENTILATION
CIRCULATION
Crawl spaces can be big and can be oddly shaped making it hard to control the moisture in the air all throughout the space. This is where the Atmox system’s circulation comes into play. The Atmox system’s circulation system is a series of small fans that will keep the air moving around the crawl space in order to ensure that there are no bad spots in the crawl space where the ventilation or dehumidifier isn’t reaching. This system will keep the entire climate of the crawl space at the optimal air humidity level to ensure that the crawl space stays dry and safe.
DEHUMIDIFICATION
There are times when the air outside the crawl space and the air inside the crawl space are both just too humid. When this happens the Atmox system will employ a dehumidifier to remove the moisture from the air of the crawl space in order to keep any water from forming in the crawl space. It will also ensure that the climate of the crawl space is a hostile environment to any mold growth so that no mold will form in the crawl space. This system, coupled with the ventilation and circulation, will work to ensure the humidity of your crawl space is clean and dry no matter what is going on outside.
DEHUMIDIFICATION
CONTROL CENTER
No system is good unless it has a brain. The Atmox crawl space system comes with a digital control center that will be installed inside your home wherever you choose. This control center is a small control panel that will give you a consistent report of the health of your crawl space and will even give you warnings of problems in your crawl space like if water is detected from a burst pipe or if the wood in your crawl space has too much moisture in it, etc. It is a helpful companion to give you peace of mind on what is happening below the floors of your home.

ABOUT US
Growing up in Louisiana gave our owner, Mike, firsthand experience about the problems that can be experienced with moisture issues. The low water table and severe storms make many parts of the state rather soggy. Mike saw his family home flooded several times, and that led to him having a keen interest in waterproofing.
