Healthy Homes for Arkansas — Delta Damp, Ozark Air, Storm Rebuilds
Virtual Home Health Score assessments statewide. GaiaCrete™ detailed for Arkansas's Zone 3A Delta humidity and severe-weather rebuild work. Founding Mr Hemp House® dealer territories open by ZIP code.
Delta humidity and slab moisture
Eastern Arkansas homes on slabs in high-humidity Delta soils wick moisture upward, which shows in flooring failures and musty interiors.
Spring severe weather
Tornado and hail season along the Arkansas River valley damages roofs and cladding, and the water that follows is what causes the mold.
Aging rural and manufactured housing
Arkansas has a high share of older manufactured homes with thin envelopes, poor ventilation, and no moisture control.
What Climate Zone 3A Means for Arkansas Homes
Arkansas sits in Zone 3A with Delta humidity in the east and Ozark elevation in the north, so one state carries two very different moisture stories. Spring severe-weather season brings tornadoes and hail along the Arkansas River valley. Rural well water and older manufactured housing add indoor-environment risks the code never addresses.
Arkansas Energy Code for New Building Construction
Arkansas adopts an IECC-based state energy code administered through the Arkansas Department of Labor and Licensing.

Home Health Score
A free screening that scores your home across indoor air quality, moisture and mold risk, building materials, and ventilation — so you know where to look first.
Healthy Home Assessment
A professional walkthrough of materials, moisture conditions, and ventilation, delivered as a prioritized action plan. Screening and guidance — not a medical or diagnostic service.
