Air Sampling for Mold Detection

One of the most significant concerns with mold growth is its adverse impact on indoor air quality. Even when not visible, active mold growth releases spores into the air, potentially compromising your health and environment. At FL Home Inspections and Mold Assessments, we employ comprehensive air sampling techniques to determine whether your indoor environment has been affected by mold.

Our Process

Air samples are meticulously collected from areas in your home or office where mold is visible or suspected, including concealed spots. To ensure accuracy, we also gather a control sample from outside to establish a baseline for the expected mold presence. This comparative analysis helps validate the indoor air quality test results.

We utilize two primary methods for mold air sampling

Culturable Air Sampling: This method involves using a specialized instrument to capture mold spores in the air. The spores are deposited on a culture plate and allowed to incubate. The resulting colonies are then counted to determine the concentration of mold spores in the air.
Non-culturable Air Sampling: In this technique, air is drawn through a device that collects mold spores onto a microscopic slide. The slide is then examined under a microscope to identify and count the mold spores.

These methods are crucial for assessing mold air quality and ensuring the safety and cleanliness of your environment. All samples are sent to an independent laboratory for detailed analysis, where mold strains are identified and quantified.

When Is Air Sampling Necessary?

Presence of visible mold growth.
Musty odors or health symptoms among occupants that suggest mold exposure.
Verification of mold removal following remediation.
