BRADENTON -- Because any type of mold growth in elevated levels indoors
can harm occupant health, the prevention of indoor mold problems in
Florida homes, offices, and workplaces can significantly improve the
healthy well-being of residents.
.
Here are the top twelve tips to prevent indoor mold problems in homes,
condominiums, apartments, and other buildings, as recommended by Phillip
Fry and Divine Montero, Certified Environmental Hygienists, Certified Mold
Inspectors, Certified Mold Remediators, and co-managers
.
1. Keep year-round indoor humidity to less than 60 percent through
adequate ventilation air movement and the use of air conditioning and
dehumidifiers. Indoor mold grows very well when the indoor relative
humidity is above 70 percent. In addition, minimize the use of live indoor
plants, which facilitate mold growth and increase indoor humidity due to
frequent watering.
.
High Florida humidity, roof leaks, plumbing leaks, internal
air-conditioning condensation or dust accumulation, and ground water
wicking up through concrete floors are the major causes of Florida mold
problems.
.
2. Keep indoor humidity levels low by never: (a) using a humidifier to
increase humidity; (b) hanging wet clothes, towels, and linens to dry
indoors; and (c) taking a shower or bath without first turning on the
bathroom exhaust fan or opening a bathroom window to exhaust humid air to
the outdoors.
.
3. Use a digital hygrometer to check humidity levels in all rooms and
areas of your house or condominium. Record the humidity percentage and the
measurement dates for each room in a journal or log book.
.
4. Clean window air conditioners, central air conditioning equipment and
ducts, air purifiers, and dehumidifiers every three months to get rid of
accumulated organic dust and dirt (good mold food) and mold growth.
