A shallow unfinished space beneath the first floor or under the roof usually for access to plumbing, heating ducts and wiring.
Example sentences:
Vapor barrier ground covers appreciably inhibit evaporation from crawl space floors, thereby lowering crawl space humidity levels. (Forest Products Laboratory)
The air from the crawl space is pulled into the living area by this natural vacuum then it either exits out the open windows or it continues toward the roof as the warm air rises. As this air escapes through the roof, it pulls more air from the crawl space and the cycle continues. (CrawlSpace Concepts LLC)
Poor indoor air from the basement and crawl space eventually makes its way throughout the entire home. (EMECOLE, INC.)
