Signs of Possible Indoor Air Quality Problems and Testing Methodology
Mold is another serious health hazard in any home. Mold is caused by excessive moisture present in a building due to leaky roofs, leaky plumbing and wet mechanical rooms. Many times you can smell the presence of mold and mildew upon first entering a building or room, and often are able to see it growing in areas where moisture is obvious. However, sometimes the quality of the air in a building is something that cannot be determined simply by walking through it. It is the unseen mold that can be most problematic, especially for those people who suffer from chronic respiratory diseases like asthma. Roof leaks are particularly troublesome because the water seeps into the ceiling and drywall, and mold begins to grow on those damp surfaces inside the walls – completely unseen. With specific testing, mold can be detected anywhere in the house, even behind walls, allowing you to determine the source of the problem.
