Alpha IAQ Solutions provides aerial mold testing and surface testing for ductwork and HVAC systems to ensure optimal indoor air quality and detect potential mold contamination. Here’s how they do it:

​

​

Aerial Mold Testing Process

 

1. Air Sampling: Specialized air sampling devices are used to collect airborne mold spores from different areas of the property.

2. Analysis: The samples are sent to a laboratory for detailed analysis, identifying mold species and concentration levels.

3. Comparison: Indoor air samples are compared to outdoor samples to determine if mold levels are elevated beyond normal conditions.

4. Reporting: A comprehensive report is provided, outlining findings and recommendations for remediation if necessary.

​

Surface Mold Testing Process

 

1. Visual Inspection: Technicians examine HVAC components, ductwork, and surfaces for visible mold growth.

2. Swab & Tape Testing: Samples are collected using swabs or adhesive tape to capture mold spores directly from surfaces.

3. Lab Analysis: The collected samples are analyzed to identify mold type and severity.

4. Assessment & Recommendations: Based on results, Alpha IAQ Solutions provides guidance on remediation and prevention strategies.
