Healthcare facilities can face unique air quality challenges, from controlling the spread of airborne infections to managing air pressure in specialized areas like operating rooms and isolation wards. This is why indoor air quality testing – including asbestos and mold testing – is so important.
Asbestos is commonly found in the following:
- Pipe insulation
- Siding and wall boards
- Floor and ceiling tiles
- HVAC dust insulation
- Boiler insulation
- Cooling towers
- Electrical wiring insulation
As for mold detection, it commonly goes unnoticed in hospitals because of complex networks of wall and ceiling cavities, and heating and air systems. These systems are vital in maintaining optimal temperature conditions, while being extremely vulnerable to mold growth. Our mold inspectors are experts in finding hidden pockets of mold growth and implementing a strategy for efficient mold remediation.
