Quickly drying water damaged buildings is the BEST way to control mold growth. Chemicals and bleach DO NOT prevent mold from growing. Lowering the moisture content below 16% does and commercial dehumidifiers capable of removing massive amounts of water from the structure is the best way to achieve low structural moisture content.
Attic Mold Removal & Prevention
by Ritch Paprocki on May 11, 2011 at 9:15 pm
Attic mold growth is a common affliction for many Nebraska residents. Unfortunately, attic mold removal is a challenging remediation process because of the difficulty in accesssing the work. Extreme temperatures, fiberglass insulation, puncture hazards and the absence of a solid work surface just complicate working in this OSHA defined confined space.
Attic mold is a result of wet framing and roofing materials. How these materials get wet varies from roof leaks to poor attic insulation to inadequate attic ventilation. Regardless of how the materials get water damaged, the result is always the same…attic mold!
Here’s the good news. The mold can be cleaned and remediated, permanently removed from the attic. No need to replace the affected framing materials.
How do you prevent mold growth? Keep materials dry! Address roof leaks, make sure you have enough insulation and minimize water vapor in the attic via thorough ventilation.
