Send us Fan Mail

Tired of worrying about humidity levels in your crawl space while you're away from home? The technology landscape for home moisture control is evolving rapidly, and we're excited to share a game-changing solution with you.

Meet AJ, our DIY specialist who's been helping Crawl Space Ninja customers tackle their moisture control projects for three years. In this conversation, AJ breaks down everything you need to know about the new Aprilaire dehumidifier Wi-Fi controller – a retrofit device that brings smart technology to your existing Aprilaire dehumidifier. Unlike newer models that come with built-in connectivity, this controller lets you upgrade your current unit (compatible with models 1830, 1850, 1870, E080, E100, and E130) without replacing the entire system.

The controller pairs with Aprilaire's Healthy Air app, giving you the power to monitor humidity levels, adjust settings, and receive alerts directly on your smartphone. This feature proves invaluable for vacation homeowners, rental property investors, and even primary residents during travel. Imagine being able to check on your Smoky Mountain cabin's crawl space humidity while relaxing on a Florida beach, or monitoring multiple rental properties without physical visits.

Beyond the product spotlight, we also discuss how AJ helps DIYers through personalized consultations. Using specialized inspection sheets and proprietary calculations, he creates accurate materials lists tailored to your specific project needs. Whether you're a dedicated DIY enthusiast or a contractor looking for expert guidance, this service ensures you'll have exactly what you need for a successful crawl space project.
