What it is

What to Know About Vapor Barriers

Central Texas soil holds enough moisture that it can evaporate straight up through an open crawl space floor, even with no standing water visible anywhere. A vapor barrier laid across the ground blocks that moisture before it reaches the air, framing, and insulation above it.
