KNOW WHAT IS IN THE AIR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ARE BREATHING.

Mold is a type of fungus. It is present almost everywhere, including in the air. In general, normal amounts of mold in the environment do not pose a substantial health risk to healthy people with regular immune system function.

If you come into contact with mold, you may experience symptoms, such as:

• a runny or blocked nose.

• watery, red eyes.

• a dry cough.

• skin rashes.

• a sore throat.

• Sinus issues.

• wheezing.

Mold can be found throughout your home, sometimes hidden within your walls, floors, ceilings, and attics. You may find some visual indications of mold however it is important to understand that often the exterior mold which you can see may not end there and a professional inspector should be considered to further investigate the issue. As well, air-born mold particles can travel and grow as they pass through the ventilation ducting.   

Samples of areas where mold is suspected can be professionally collected and analysed by a certified lab.  

If you suspect that there is mold in your home, you can have an AIR QUALITY TEST which is easily and quickly performed.

The test is performed using a Zefron collection pump with Air-O-Cell, which will gather air samples from within your home as well as outside of your home. These samples are professionally obtained and analysed by a certified lab. Within a few days, you are provided with a detailed report indicating if there are elevated levels and types of mold which were found in your home. 

With this fast and easy process, you can really know the quality of the air that you and your family are breathing.
