The air you breathe – is it safe?
The air you breathe in your home can cause you and your family damage to their health if it contains too many pollutants. Air quality testing will help to determine the type, or types, of mould present so that our technicians know what they are dealing with. The test will also test for VOCs and levels of other harmful bacteria. At Mold Busters, our technicians will take air samples which are then sent to accredited laboratories for analysis. We will not just test the air quality in the main rooms, cupboards, lofts and basements, we will also test the air for mould in those often ignored, hard to reach areas, such as crawl spaces, air ventilation shafts and roof eaves.
Indoor air quality (IAQ), if it is poor, can have a significant on the health of those that live within the home. There are a wide array of health conditions, from mild allergies to severe respiratory infections, that mould spores can cause. The extent to which it affects your health will depend on the level of pollutants and irritants found in the air you breathe, the types and level of micro-organisms present, how much you are exposed to them and your natural susceptibility to infection.
At Mold Busters Singapore, we can carry out both indoor and outdoor air quality testing ottawa, and carry out mold testing using a range of highly sensitive technical equipment, including thermal imaging and infrared cameras, to ensure that all mould is detected.
Once the inspector has received the results back from the laboratory, Mold Busters will send you a report on their findings and then discuss the next best course of action for you. The report will give you a better idea of the current state of the quality of the air in your home, and also identify key areas that need to be investigated further. Any mould that is present will need to be removed as soon as possible to prevent any further damage. The results will also indicate whether other mould remediation work needs to be carried out, such as changing the ventilation system, installing an air purification system or more extensive work in replacing damaged joists and repairing water leaks.
