This crawl space in West New York, NJ had outdated fiberglass insulation and the homeowners were in search of something better that would save them money. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed SilverGlo crawl space insulation and CleanSpace vapor barrier. These products work together to keep water vapor out of crawl spaces, the space dry and clean, and the humidity low. SilverGlo traps cold air at the source - is is installed on the walls as opposed to the ceiling. Unlike fiberglass, which can grow mold when it gets wet, SilverGlo crawl space insulation is waterproof. Now this crawl space has a low humidity, will not grow mold, and the homeowners are saving money on their energy bill.

CleanSpace is made of various layers of plastic and fitted tightly to walls, making the ideal solution for basements with stone or concrete walls. This vapor barrier system is both waterproof and mold resistant. It enhances and brightens the look of any basement!
