Indoor Air Quality Assessments and Testing for Mold

We use a variety of highly sensitive instruments to help us determine the underlying causes of a buildings poor indoor air quality.

Visual Inspection of the building for evidence of moisture intrusion and visible signs of mold growth.

  • Moisture Meters to determine if walls, floors and ceilings show signs of active moisture problems.
  • Air Quality Testing to determine air patterns and relative humidity in the building which could lead to mold issues.
  • Airborne Laser Particle Counters to determine which areas of the building show the highest dust load (which could be mold spores)
  • MVOC meters (Microbial Volatile Organic Compounds) to determine off gassing levels for mold in the indoor environment.
  • Thermal Imaging Cameras to locate hidden moisture issues inside wall cavities without any holes, marks or other destructive techniques.
  • Viable Laboratory Testing by way of drawing air (living mold spores) into a petri dish with an agar solution that will grow active mold spores.
  • Non-Viable Mold Sampling by way of drawing air (dead mold spores) into a spore trap which will identify mold spores that have either died, dried up or have been killed by a biocide.
  • Tape lift sampling for source identification

  3. The use of moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras to determine the source and extent of moisture damage.
  4. The use of airborne laser particle counters to help determine which areas have the highest dust load.
  5. The use of mold detection dogs to find specific areas of mold growth.
