The task involves installing a CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system in a specific area as indicated on a drawing, following the guidelines provided by the manufacturer. The installation includes securely attaching and sealing the system at the interior footings and piers (support structures) to ensure it is tightly in place. Additionally, it requires fastening and air sealing near the top edge of the foundation walls, unless there is already insulation in that location. The goal of this job was to create an effective barrier that covers and seals the crawl space, providing protection and potentially improving energy efficiency in the enclosed area.
