In episode 334, Steve explains what negative air and air scrubbing entails. Negative air is essential during mold remediation to prevent cross contamination. Negative air is the process of pulling all the air from inside the containment (work area) and discharging outside.
Air scrubbing is the process of filtering the air inside the containment while work isn't being performed. In simple terms, we air scrub at night while the remediation crews are offsite. Negative air is something we do while removing the mold during the work day.
Negative air is crucial when it comes to mold removal. If your remediation contractor isn't using negative air while removing mold, find another contractor!
We appreciate all of you and hope you're doing well and staying safe! Have a great week.
