Most Popular Thickness

12 Mil DrySpace™

The 12 Mil DrySpaceis by far our most popular crawl space vapor barrier due to the all around versatility for light storage and superior moisture protection. The SilverBack DrySpace™ vapor barrier is the only crawl space vapor barrier on the market that is actual thickness measured at the plastic and not at the thread.

   

 

   

Spray Foam Insulation

Where NOT to use it -

Closed cell spray foam is a great product for sealing out every little air leak. But, it will hinder your ability to inspect the structure if it is installed in the rim (band) joist area of the crawl space. This issue will come into play when selling a home or getting a termite inspection.

Crawl Space LightCrawl Space Light

This light has a 250 watt bulb for lots of light where you need it without the extra heat you get from a 500 watt light. The light is mounted on a swivel clamp to allow the direction of the light to always be where it is needed. The clamp will fit on a standard floor joist so it will not need to be on the wet ground. This will help protect workers from electrical shock as well as the heat from the light burning the DrySpace.

This light can be mounted three ways; with stand, with clamp and with a ground spike. All three mounting methods are included in the package. Also included is an extra 250 watt bulb.

Spaghetti Cord This product has 4 cord outlets along its 25' length to power lights, hammer drill, vacuum or whatever you need to plug in. One great advantage is when you need to use a new power tool you don't need to go back to the access and unplug a light to get power. It also keeps the amount of extension cord in the crawl space to a minimum, which means a safer place to work. This cord is 12 gauge so there will be no threat of any of the power cords attached to it over heating. Each outlet is lit up, making it easy to find in the dark.
