So how much does a new HVAC system cost?
I am asked this question on almost a daily basis, so why would you put your heating and air conditioning equipment in the crawlspace. Most of the time it is because it was cheaper, or the contractor did not want it in a closet in the main part of the home, maybe it could not go in the garage. Therefore, we are going to place it in the least desirable pace in the home… the crawlspace. During the summer, the humidity in Delaware and Maryland get to be very high and with the foundation vents, that we have been told to open over the years the air just comes pouring in. The only problem is that air in the home will rise (at least the hot air) so we are left with cold air under the home. So when you have warm or hot air that is laden with moisture (aka humidity) you will begin to have condensation forming on any cold surface, an hvac system is more than cold enough.
Therefore, we go back to the original question “How much does a new hvac system cost?” I have gotten answers from $10,000 and up. One of the main reasons a system can break down is the unit has rusted out! Literally, the whole bottom can give way and the unit falls apart. So by placing a new vapor barrier like the CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation system in the home, you air conditioning systems can last even longer.
