Why it matters in health care settings

Controlling moisture and relative humidity in health care facilities and medical offices is important, since the presence of moisture and dirt can let mold and other biological contaminants thrive. Relative humidity that runs too high can contribute to the growth and spread of unhealthy biological pollutants, as can a failure to dry water-damaged materials promptly, usually within 24 hours, or to properly maintain equipment with water reservoirs or drain pans, such as humidifiers, refrigerators, and ventilation equipment.

Pollutants can also spread throughout a building by moving through stairwells, elevator shafts, wall spaces, and utility chases, so special ventilation or other control measures may be needed for some sources. Dampness is the presence of unwanted, excessive moisture in a building, and it can lead to the growth of mold, fungi, and bacteria, the release of volatile organic compounds, and the breakdown of building materials.

Different mold species adapt to different moisture conditions, which is why the practical thing to control is the water, not the species. Observations of dampness, water damage, mold, or mold odor are what a facilities team can act on.

Bactronix offers mold testing using a non-invasive, safe, quick detection process that is friendly for pets and people. The same detection technology is used throughout the food and beverage, health care, and pharmaceutical industries, hospitals, restaurants, and supermarkets, where rapid detection of contamination is critical.
