Global air filtration company Camfil has published a comprehensive guide to help commercial building managers identify and eliminate mold, a significant threat to indoor air quality. The guide emphasizes the importance of maintaining clean indoor air to ensure the safety, well-being, and productivity of occupants in offices and other commercial spaces.
Mold in commercial buildings can produce harmful allergens and toxins, making its prevention and remediation crucial to mitigate health risks. Mark Davidson, Manager of Marketing and Technical Materials at Camfil USA, stressed the importance of diligence in managing indoor mold.
“Effectively managing indoor mold demands diligence and adherence to proper building and HVAC system maintenance practices,” Davidson said. “Central to controlling air quality is keeping contaminant levels within acceptable limits, whether they are detectable by occupants or aligned with health standards. Air filtration consistently plays a pivotal role in achieving this goal.”
The newly released resource by Camfil covers several key areas, including:
- The significance of mold as a problem in commercial buildings
- Understanding air filter efficiency and MERV ratings
- Differences between MERV and MERV-A filter efficiency
- Case studies showcasing successful mold elimination
