Ideal Crawl Space Humidity Levels in North Carolina
Building science standards recommend keeping crawl space relative humidity below 55% to prevent mold germination and timber moisture absorption.
The 55% Relative Humidity Threshold
Mold spores require relative humidity above 70% to germinate actively. Keeping relative humidity between 45% and 55% preserves subfloor structural integrity.
