Heavy rain and runoff
Thunderstorms and tropical-storm rain drop a lot of water fast. Runoff that is not carried away from the foundation finds the lowest point, which is often the crawl space.
Plumbing overhead
Supply lines, drain lines and water heaters run above the crawl space. A slow leak drips onto insulation and soil where nobody looks.
Humid air and cold surfaces
Warm, damp air meeting cool ducts and pipes under the floor condenses into water that soaks insulation and wood.
