Molds
Diagnosis and treatment of mold
1. Mold
Damage
is
observed
in
buildings
due
to
the
development
of
mold.
They
form
at
the
corners
of
premises,
behind
furniture.
Bedrooms,
bathrooms,
kitchens,
laundry
rooms,
cellars
or
storage
rooms seem to be the most vulnerable premises.
Mold formation should be avoided because :
•
they alter the appearance of the premises
•
they degrade the interior finishes
•
they give off unpleasant odors
•
they
can
have
harmful
consequences
on
the
health
of
the
occupants.
2. Mold allergies and intolerances
A
mold
allergy
is
manifested
by
allergic
rhinitis,
eye
irritation,
cough
and
dyspnea;
allergic
bronchial
asthma.
Molds
also
irritate
the
respiratory
tract,
the
mucous
membranes
of
the
eye
and
the
skin. In conclusion, you are bad at home because of mold.
3. Diagnosis of humidity
Measurement
of
the
humidity
of
the
walls
and
research
of
the
sources
of
humidity.
The
causes
are
various
such
as
surface
condensation,
internal
condensation,
hygroscopicity,
soil
humidity,
construction
humidity,
rain
falls,
cracks
in
the
walls,
damaged
wall,
poor drainage, capillarity, etc.
4. Thermographic analysis
Analysis of thermal bridges that cause surface condensation.
Thermal
bridges
are
near
the
insulation
of
the
house.
A
house
insulated
from
the
inside,
the
junction
between
the
floors
and
the
walls is a frequent thermal bridge.
For
a
house
insulated
from
the
outside,
the
balconies
are
a
frequent
place
of
thermal
bridges.
If
the
house
is
not
insulated
at
all,
there
can
also
be
thermal
bridges;
At
this
time
these
are
the
places
where
the
outer
wall
is
thinner.
Defects
in
the
insulation
of
the house, hidden defects, etc.
5. Mold remediation
Careful
application
of
anti-humidity
treatment
to
solve
your
mold
problem.
