Since when you put crawl spaces in the search it reurns copper pipe and I already got copper pipe, so……..
Current state of the crawl space
Half the vents covered up. plastic stapled to the floor joists and falling down, not sure exactly whats living down there but the inspector that looked at the hosue before we bought it said “son, you might want to throw a bug bomb in there before you go in there just to be safe…
My question, I want to fix the space right and am looking for some resources….I’m not in either the vented or unvented camp as of yet.
Many mpore questions to follow as time and money allows.

So if I'm reading this right, condtioning the crawl space is the right way to go.....6 mil vapor barrier on floor , insulate walls, all external opening sealed,exhaust fan for crawl space with makeup air form housing envelope......I'm seeing kaching, kaching.
Seen any practical experience with this?
