About Our Mold Assessments:
Fungal growth is a concern when elevated amounts of moisture have been introduced to an environment. Moisture can be introduced through various forms such as a large water loss or the build-up of water vapor within an enclosed environment. This water must then find its way to something organic such as building material. Mold within the ambient air will then find its way to the affected materials and began to grow. Spores are a result of mold growth and sufficient moisture. Aeris can perform a mold assessment to properly identify the presence, the types, the cause and origin of the mold.
Key components of an Aeris Mold Assessment:
- Visual inspection of the property
- Ambient air and/or surface sampling

Florida Mold Testing: A Healthy and Happy Environment
Mold can grow in various areas, and thrive well within HVAC units, drywall, wood, and other porous materials. Where there is moisture, there is always the risk of mold developing and creating an air quality concern. Severe problems with health have been tied to poor indoor air quality.
Mold contamination can be very hazardous as certain molds can produce harmful toxins. Some of these molds have the ability to cause symptoms such as nausea, respiratory problems and even, in extreme cases, damage to internal organs. These dangers are heightened when they affect certain individuals with pre-existing respiratory conditions. It isn’t just those with asthma or allergies that are affected. Seniors and children may be more susceptible to the consequences of water damaged materials.
Bringing on a qualified professional to assess the property will help with identifying the true extent of a problem. An experienced firm with the proper tools is key to identifying mold in your home or business. Avoiding conflict of interest will allow one to fully understand their options for dealing with mold contamination.
