Environmentally Friendly Mold Remediation Techniques That Significantly Reduce Childhood Asthmainhalation of airborne mold, mold spores and fragments, and thetoxins, irritants and allergens they may contain. And these problemsoften are caused by an improperly installed or improperly maintainedHVAC (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning) system.In 80-90% of the homes, schools, or offices where people are ill orirritated by mold, we find problems in the HVAC systems.Problems Caused by Poor Remediation TechniquesWhen HazMat (moon suits) outfits are used by mold remediators, itoften means that they are using old fashioned dust producing techniquesfor the remediation work and they need to wear those suits to protectthemselves so they don’t get sick while creating huge amounts of moldcontaminated toxic construction dust. Such dusts are rarely properlycleaned up and often contaminate the remediation area, as well asadjacent areas and the HVAC and duct system, potentially causinghealth problems for children and other sensitive people.Health problems can also be the result of chemicals (biocides) that airduct cleaners and AC contractors almost always spray into air ducts.In almost all air duct systems in use in homes, schools, and offices, atleast some fiberglass ducting is used.According to the EPA (http://www.epa.gov/iaq/pubs/airduct.html):No chemical cleaning products are currently registered by theEPA for use on fiberglass ductboard or fiberglass lined ducts so itIn this book we explain thelatest mold remediationtechniques that are suitable forchildren as well as othersensitive occupants. Andbecause these techniques don’tcreate contaminating dustsduring the remediation work,they can actually reduce the costof remediation by over 50%!12is important to determine ifsections of your system containthese linings before allowing theapplication of any chemicaltreatment. Note that to almostall air duct cleaning firms,spraying chemicals into an ACduct is what they call “cleaning.”Your AC contractor or air ductcleaner may be well intentionedwhen they are spraying these
