Fiberglass insulation in a crawl space has a tendency to soak up moisture and humidity. The fiberglass insulation can become so saturated that it can "drip" off the ceiling.
Crawl spaces create the perfect environment for moisture and humidity. This is because they are shallow structures installed directly into the dirt under your home. Crawl spaces soak up the natural cold of the earth around your home and transfer it into the air in your crawl space, creating humidity and moisture.
Energy bills can suffer when utilities are housed in a crawl space. This is because the cold can bombard a water heater, furnace, or hot water pipes, forcing them to work harder just to do the work that they were designed to do.
