I'll bet you didn't know that we're right in the middle of;
"National Indoor Toxic Mold Awareness Month."
Well, I knew………
"National Indoor Toxic Mold Awareness Month" is a great opportunity for
people to learn more about the dangers and hazards that can come from
mold, inside air ventilation systems," said John Rotche, President of
DUCTZ. "We are helping to spread the word about the adverse affects of
poor indoor air quality and also aid in the prevention of the growth of
indoor mold."
According to Tom Yacobellis, Vice President of Corporate Operations,
"Indoor mold can create a variety of respiratory and health problems
including chronic asthma, allergies, respiratory inflammation and other
serious lung illnesses. HVAC system cleanings can help alleviate these
symptoms while enhancing indoor air quality and ensuring that air
systems deliver clean, fresh air."
"The negative health effects of mycotoxins are a function of the
concentration, the duration of exposure and person's general health and
sensitivities. It is imperative that good moisture controls and
ventilation systems within residential homes and other buildings are
put in place and evaluated as needed, helping to limit potential health
risks," said Yacobellis.
