Why Charlotte homes are different

The Piedmont's red clay soil holds water close to the surface after rain, and most homes sit on vented crawlspaces that pull in that same humid ground air, a combination the region's builders have only recently started addressing with sealed crawlspace design.

Crawlspace foundations are the regional default across Charlotte, including in newer construction, and vented crawlspaces built to older code let in more humid outside air than the sealed, conditioned crawlspaces now recommended for the Piedmont climate.
