Basements are prone to excess moisture since water can seep into the home through cracks in the foundation. While sealing up those cracks can prevent moisture from seeping into the house, excess moisture can still remain inside the basement.
High humidity inside your basement can lead to structural rot, poor Indoor Air Quality, dust, mold growth, and pest infestations. These problems are not just limited to your basement. Over time, this unhealthy air can spread throughout your entire home leading to an uptick in respiratory infections, poor sleep quality, and fatigue.
