We’re halfway through January — and if you’re wondering why your home still feels cold even with the heat cranked up, you’re not alone. Cold floors, rising energy bills, and that funky winter odor creeping through the house? Yeah, it might not be your HVAC.
It could be your crawl space working against you.
🧊 The Hidden Chill Beneath Your Feet
An unsealed, under-insulated crawl space lets cold air creep into your home — and warm air escape. That means:
Freezing floors
Uneven room temperatures
Higher heating bills
Overworked HVAC systems
Drafts that seem to come from nowhere
If your crawl space hasn’t been inspected recently, now’s the time.
Winter is peak season for energy loss and moisture buildup.
💧 Moisture Builds Even in Cold Weather
Think cold = dry? Not in your crawl space.
Snowmelt, frozen ground, and condensation can all lead to:
Standing water
Mold growth
Rotted floor joists
Musty odors creeping into your living space
Poor air quality (that icky winter smell? It might be mold)
