Tis test Helps determine of a problem exists in a client defined area.
This is often referred to as an "Indoor/Outdoor Comparison".

Mold is everywhere outside your home. Without mold a tree that fell hundreds of years ago and hundreds of year's worth of dead vegetation would be piled up upon the ground. Because there are mold spores everywhere they will also be inside your home.

However, if the number of mold spores found inside your home is significantly higher that the number of spores found outside your home, it means that mold is growing inside the home….Using a vacuum pump, 25 liters of air are drawn through a spore trap (one in the testing area and one outside of the home). The spore trap is sent to a certified laboratory for analysis. This is the preferred test when there are no visible signs of mold.

• Client defined area of inspection (one room - if multiple rooms are to be tested, a sample must be collected in each room)
• Visual inspection of defined area
• Collection of one or more samples in defined area (usually predicated by visible mold, odors, and or evidence of water penetration) and one exterior sample for comparison
• Analysis of samples
• Laboratory Report detailing the presence and type(s) of mold, if any, found in the samples
• Laboratory Summary Report identifying if any "unusual" mold conditions exist in the sampled locations only, at the time they were collected

• A guarantee that mold does or doesn't exist in the subject property
• Remediation specifications of identified mold affected areas. The advice of an Indoor Air Quality Specialist (IAQ) or other appropriate professional should be sought for further directions on how to address any mold problems discovered
