Mold Air Sampling

Mold can be found by pulling an air sample in areas where there is believed to be mold present.

Denver is built in a groove between the alpine front range and the arid plains. This topography creates a weather pattern in which all the moisture picked up by the Chinook winds of early spring is dumped on Denver. When you combine this wet, relatively warm monsoon season with the spring thaw and runoff, the result is often water damage. And where you find water damage, mold is sure to follow.Types of Water Tests

Mold Is Sneaky

Some mold infestations are immediately obvious, but others can be very sneaky. Mold can grow inside walls, under sinks, or behind baseboards. In such cases, it can go completely overlooked. The longer any mold problem festers, the more difficult and expensive it is to clean up.

Mold Air / Tape Testing FAQs

What is a Mold Air Sample

A mold air sample is a collection of mold spores that are taken from the air. This type of sample can be used to identify the presence of mold in a particular area, as well as to determine the types of mold present. Mold air samples can be collected using various methods, including using a pump and cassette system or a settling plate. The results of a mold air sample can be used to help determine if remediation is necessary and to create a plan for removing the mold.

What is a Tape Sample

A tape mold sample is a sample that is collected from a surface with an adhesive tape. The sample can be used to identify and analyze the mold on the surface. The sample can also be used to determine the mold species and the amount of mold present on the surface.

What is a Swab Mold Sample

Swab mold samples are collected by wiping a sterile cotton swab over the surface of the suspected mold growth. The swab is then placed in a vial or other container and transported to a laboratory for analysis. Results from a swab mold sample can help determine the species of mold and whether it is a health concern.

What is Mold Remediation?

Mold remediation is the process of removing mold and mold spores from an indoor environment. Mold can cause a variety of health problems, so it is important to remove it from your home or office as soon as possible. There are several methods of mold remediation, but the most effective is often a combination of techniques.

The first step in mold remediation is to identify the source of the moisture that is causing the mold growth. Once the source has been identified, it needs to be addressed and fixed. This may include repairing a leaky roof or fixing a plumbing problem.

Once the source of moisture has been addressed, the next step is to remove the affected material. This may include walls, ceilings, floors, furniture, or anything else that has been contaminated by mold.

Do you do Mold Remediation?

We do not do remediation but we can help referrer you to a remediation contractor. The contractor can use our report and our suggestions and protocol so that the proper remediation can occur. Once the contractor has performed the remediation under the correct containment and standard then EnvioCore can perform a mold clearance at the end making sure all the mold has been removed completely and correctly.
