Failure to encapsulate a crawlspace can lead to increased energy bills, mold growth, and structural damage due to persistent moisture. Without proper sealing, homes are vulnerable to pest infestations and poor indoor air quality, which can cause health issues for occupants. Studies indicate that encapsulation can reduce energy costs by up to 15-20% and improve indoor air quality by minimizing mold spores and allergens.
