crawlspace temperature, humidity
Does anybody know what a reasonable temperature for a crawlspace would
be? I recently put two dehumidifer units in my crawlspace (along with a couple box fans to circulate air), as I've had major problems with moisture down there. I have all the crawl space vents sealed. However, the temperature in the crawlspace is now running about 8-10 degrees hotter than it had been. It was running around 68 degrees. Now it is consistently up around 76-78 degrees. I guess this is because the dehumidifers heat things up. The humidity level in the crawlspace is now under control, the RH has been staying around 45-47% (it had been running around 80-90%). But I'm concerned about the temperature running higher. Is this anything I should worry about? What would be the ideal temperature and RH for a crawlspace? |
