Dehumidification and Air Scrubbing Needed for Successful Mold Remediation

What in the world is "Air Scrubbing"? We can hear you ask that question as you read the title of our blog. Simply put, air scrubbing is one of the most effective methods for getting rid of mold. An air scrubber is a portable filtration system that seizes airborne particles and improves air quality. An air scrubber pulls in air, and the air travels through a series of filters.

Air scrubbers are also ideal for getting rid of the mold that settles in your walls, carpet, and drapes.

Failure to properly clean the air can ultimately lead to worker health issues, lower job quality, and higher remediation costs, which is why having an air scrubber is extremely important

There are different sizes of air scrubbers that differ in intensity. When vacuuming and using air scrubbers for mold remediation, the filters used should be HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air). Only hepa filters are designed to capture particles as small as mold spores. Regular filters will not work.
