"Aeroreflexduk" or building plastic for insulating crawl space?

WibAir · 2017-09-15T15:25:49+00:00

Hello, We have moisture and mold problems in our crawl space, and various companies have provided quotes and solutions. The moisture partially comes from the ground, and it is recommended to lay a membrane throughout the foundation to block moisture in combination with a dehumidifier. One company has spoken highly of using a so-called "aeroreflex membrane" in aluminum (6mm) instead of regular building plastic. The argument is that it will reflect heat from the house, and the entire foundation will become significantly warmer (up to 10 degrees warmer according to them!!). The heat is supposed to make the dehumidifier work more efficiently and improve the climate of the house. Does anyone have experience with this type of membrane? What do you think, could it be as good as they claim? Grateful for advice and opinions!
