Mold Air Testing:

What Does It Cost? What Are The Steps To Testing For Mold In Your Home?

Mold testing in Salt Lake City is vital when the following issues arise:

✅ water leak occurred

✅ tenants complaining about mold

✅ I smell a funny musty odor but don’t see mold.

✅ I’m not feeling well when I’m home.

✅ buying a home in Salt Lake City.

These are all samples of why you should hire a mold professional to perform mold testing & inspection in your Salt Lake City and Provo Utah home.

Broadly speaking, most mold testing involves taking a sample of either the air or a surface. A Salt Lake City or Provo Utah mold inspector “tests” the air or surface to find out what kind of mold exists and/or if the elevations of mold are higher inside the home VS the outside air.

Air samples can be taken and analyzed in a variety of ways. The most common method uses a “spore trap” and is called a “spore trap sample.” Spore traps work by having a known volume of air pass impact a sticky surface as it passes through the spore trap sampling device. Most of the particles in the air also impact this sticky surface and consequently adhere to, and are captured on, this sticky surface. Mold spores comprise a subset of these ‘particles in the air and also are captured on the sticky medium inside the spore trap. When the spore trap is sent to the mold testing laboratory for analysis, the mold laboratory opens the spore trap, applies some stains to the sticky surface that the mold spores can absorb, and then identifies and quantifies the types of mold spores captured during the sampling process. There are other methods of mold sampling, including culturing or growing the mold spores captured from the air, but these are less commonly used.
