Mold is counterproductive to clean indoor air quality. Here are some top methods defend against the contaminant
Investigate the source of mold: Mold is the byproduct of leaks, floods, sewage backups and elevated humidity levels. Locate the source of the mold. Sometimes, a crawl space can emit moisture, triggering the growth of mold.
Amend any plumbing or drainage problems: If the cause to the mold is due to a leaky faucet, toilet or other sewage draining problems, consult a plumbing service contractor to diagnose and prescribe an effective solution. Also, after the problem has been rectified, remember to discard all items affected by the sewage backup or flood.
Eliminate household mold: Mold killing agents are available at home improvement stores in a spray bottle. The chemical compound is one cup of bleach and seven to 10-parts water. The mixture should be applied to the mold laden area. To avoid accidents, wear goggles and gloves. However, sanitizing mold only solves half the problem, as it perpetuates in environments where there is moisture.
Hoffmann Brothers prescribes five steps on enhancing indoor air quality:
Start at the windows in each room throughout the home. When using household cleaners, remember to turn on a fan and open windows to release any VOCs. Use a damp paper cloth to wipe out wind sills and window panes to remove dirt accumulation.
Next, move onto eliminating tiny particulates and dust from other surfaces. Air vents, and shelves serve as a magnet for dust and particle accumulation. Use a damp cloth to wipe away dust build up. Then, follow up with a cloth lightly misted with the appropriate household cleaner.
Hoffmann Brothers Heating and Conditioning Contractors: Don’t forget to check underneath sinks, cabinets and crawl spaces for mold. The bacteria have been found to trigger some fatal outcomes when undetected.
Dust-laden air filters can redistribute particulate matter throughout the home, recycling allergens associated with respiratory illnesses. Swapping out old air filters with new ones every 5 to 6 weeks complements healthy indoor air quality.
Schedule maintenance. Heating and air conditioning maintenance is another facet of improving a household’s indoor quality as well as its energy savings. To assure the safety and optimal performance, components of the heating and air conditioning unit require the annual care of a professional. Aside from cleaning parts of the HVAC, the contractor will check for leaks, corrosion and loose connections.
