This should factor in the waterproofing agent applied to the concrete, a base of clean gravel of the same depth as the foundation footing. Have a tile drainage system around the entire footing.
- Install a sump pump that has a battery backup inside the crawl space. If your hose has a septic system, it is advisable to drain the sump pump into the septic tank
- Using a dehumidifier, keep the air moisture to a minimum to reduce the air ventilation of the crawl space as much as possible. Use a polyethylene vapor barrier to cover the interior walls. Fix it to the concrete with a duct sealant to minimize oozing through the concrete.
