Dear Shelia,
This is a report based on site inspection and lab findings.
I want to personally thank you for the time you have taken with me to help expedite this NORMI™ Certified LIMITED IAQ/Mold Inspection. I am satisfied that I now have enough information to draw some important conclusions and make some specific recommendations concerning the indoor air quality of this salon, and the protocols needed to restore a healthy environment.
I appreciate you hiring a NORMITM Certified Indoor Air Quality and Mold Inspection specialist and remain ready to assist you with any of your indoor air quality concerns.
Respectfully yours,
Linda Eicher Certified Indoor Environmental Consultant
NORMI™ Certified IAQ/Mold InspectorCertified Indoor Air Quality SpecialistNORMI™ Certified Biocide ApplicatorMember Green Professionals, USGBCMember Collaborative on Health and EnvironmentNORMI Certified TrainerDirector NORMIPro Environmental TASC ForcePresentation Speaker USGBC Greenbuild Expo 2009General Information
Our recommendations are in accordance with standards established by NORMI™ (National Organization of Remediators and Mold Inspectors) and have proven to be successful in substantially improving indoor air quality throughout the United States. For more information on IAQ/Mold issues and their solutions, please reference the book entitled Mold-Free Construction™ by D. Douglas Hoffman, available at www.MoldFreeConstruction.com. You will find this book insightful and easy-to-follow as you continue to improve the environment indoors.
This IAQ/Mold Inspection references the following property:
6935 Old Lawyers Rd.Charlotte, NC 28227
This property was inspected on August 31, 2010.
This was an inspection based on concerns about air quality issues that may be affecting some of the past technicians, especially two who worked in the back room. Both of them had complained of increased allergy symptoms while working there that they did not have to the same degree at home or elsewhere. Both were also smokers.
Property HistoryThis salon used to be a home, built in 1934, about 1800 sq. ft., one level over a crawlspace/basement. The back room was gutted and redone in recent years. The kitchen had a flood from a sink pipe which is still being remedied and insurance is involved in replacing the flooring. The flood was AFTER the other issues complained about so was not likely to be affecting their air quality.
Visual Inspection
Exterior: The exterior of the house shows some aging and lack of rain gutters/downspouts. This could easily create moisture issues in the foundation, crawlspace and basement, promoting fungal growth. The basement/crawlspace has some visible fungal growth and has a strong odor of mold.
Interior: The interior of the salon has typical chemical odors from processing and operations. The back room has both a central HVAC supply in the ceiling and a wall unit that is used when the room is heating up from hair drying. There is a musty odor in some areas, especially ones closed up from air circulation like the closets. The ceiling in one room is swelling but probably due to poor suspension of ceiling tiles. There was no moisture detected.
Diagnostic Testing
Moisture Meter Readings Moisture Meter readings can add to your understanding of the indoor environment. The moisture meter we use is a Wagner BI-2200 which is a non-penetrating meter designed to recognize moisture content of construction materials that have been tested. The general rule of thumb in our industry is that moisture content in construction materials in excess of 17% MAY indicate a moisture problem. Since we are often unable to test in wall cavities, attics or other non-visible locations, we can only draw limited conclusions about the moisture of any area tested. These conclusions, however, are included in our over-all assessment and evaluation of the IAQ/Mold Profile in your environment.
There were no high levels of moisture found in any of the floors, walls or ceilings tested throughout the salon except on the floors of the kitchen and extending out somewhat into the main salon room. These floors are vinyl over vinyl and water could be trapped in layers and is probably also saturating wood subfloor.
Temperature/Relative HumidityThe temperature in the salon was 76F and the relative humidity was 45% which is normal and not conducive to fungal growth.
Lab Analysis
Attached find copies of laboratory results from sampling taken by me on your indoor air quality. There are five different types of testing we could have performed and it is our responsibility to use our experience and expertise to assess which testing procedures will give us the best IAQ/Mold Profile of
your indoor environment. Should additional testing be required, we may select one or more of these methods to enhance our understanding of your environment so we will have an objective overview of your indoor air quality. The five methods from which we choose are:
1) Air o Cell Sampling—in this process we collect particulate from the air to get a comparison count between the indoor air and the outdoor air. This type of sampling does not indicate viability.
2) Air - Impaction Sampling—this process uses gravity or pressure to plate a Petri dish with airborne particulate and then incubate for the laboratory to identify. This method only represents a small sample of the entire indoor air environment.
3) EnviroSWAB™ Sampling—this is an effective way of collecting “dust” which includes viable mold spores, plate them to a Petri dish, and have the laboratory identify and count the number of live colony forming units (cfu). This method recognizes only the viable mold that has settled out in the location where it has been collected.
4) EnviroTAPE™ Sampling—where visible mold is present, this tape lift method allows the laboratory to identify and count the number of dead or live colony forming units (cfu). This method does not recognize viability of mold growth only the presence of mold.
5) Bulk Sampling—occasionally we determine that specific construction materials or other items require laboratory testing to identify and count the number of either dead or live colony forming units. (cfu) This method does not recognize viability of mold growth only the presence of mold.
We are not attempting to make you a Certified IAQ/Mold Inspector but want you to understand the different methods of collection so you will better understand why we choose the following methods. I utilized Swab Sampling on the visible fungal growth in crawlspace and on the supply the HVAC system in the back room as well as the coils on the wall unit AC so we could identify and quantify both the visible growth and possible invisible contamination. An air sample was also taken in the back room.
Inspection Summary
Upon review of each aspect of the inspection, as a CMI, I respectfully submit this to you:• The air sample taken in the back room showed above normal levels of contaminants in the limited
range, primarily Aspergillus/Penicillium and Cladsporium.• The swab sample taken on the HVAC supply vent in the back room showed above normal ranges
of several species of molds, primarily Cladosporium and Penicillium.• The swab sample taken on the coils of the window AC unit in the back room showed above
normal ranges of Cladosporium and some bacteria.• The swab sample taken on the joist in the basement showed above normal ranges of
Cladosporium along with some Penicillium and other molds.
There are several possible conclusions to be drawn from this inspection:• The combination of low but constant exposure to molds in the salon, along with chemical fumes and
the fact that both workers smoke can cause some exaggerated allergy symptoms in some people.
Molds seem to enhance respiratory irritation when combined with effects of smoking as many studies have shown.
• The air quality in the salon is not optimally healthy for long-term exposures.• The age of the structure makes it less air-tight between the basement and interior so many
contaminants can enter through various cracks and gaps. Older ducting can easily become unsealed too and allow contaminants to get into the system from the basement/crawlspace air.
• The musty odors in the salon indicate active mold growth somewhere in the structure, most likely underneath where observed and sampled.
• Recommendations:
All recommended protocols are in accordance with IICRC s520 standards and guidelines for remediation and/or sanitization of mold, and NORMI protocols for sanitization of contaminants and moisture control.• The air ducts could be cleaned with a safe sanitization process, as well as the coils and plenum to
reduce contaminants.• The coils on the wall unit AC can also be cleaned effectively with a safe antimicrobial solution.• Make sure all wet flooring is dried completely and/or replaced that flooded from the pipe leak in the
kitchen.• Have a basement/crawlspace professional look at those areas and recommend cost-effective
cleaning/drying solutions. I recommend Dry-Pro at 704-523-9111.• I recommend placing an activTek InDuct 2000 in the central HVAC system on the supply
plenum to provide active purification through the ducting and continuous cleaning capabilities throughout all the spaces of the salon. Both air and surface contaminants such as molds, germs, odors, chemical fumes and fine airborne dust can be significantly reduced with this system. It is a natural process replicating the way outdoor air scrubbing elements work. It will help protect the breathing spaces from molds, odors and salon chemicals as well as help control the fine particle airborne dust.

DISCLAIMERS
RANGES GUIDELIN E DISCLAI M ERS
It should be noted that mold and bacteria is found throughout our environment and identifying mold in your environment does not necessarily1.mean that you have a mold problem.Currently there are no F ederal or State recognized standards, critical or threshold exposure limits to aeroallergens.2.Because everyone’s immune system is unique , individual exposure response to aeroallergens will vary. The purpose of these guidelines is to help3.the user determine the need and value of advise received from a Certified IAQ Specialist .These guidelines are unique only to these test methodologies and have been determined to be reasonable by the manufacturer of the test kits4.(EnviroScreening.com) in conjunction with N ORMI (N ational Organization of Remediators & Mold Inspectors) Counts on the report are estimatesbased on the density of growth .Test results only apply to the area from which the sample was taken , and the description of the ranges only signify the increasing amount of germs5.present .This methodology should only be considered a screening, and more detailed analysis may be necessary. For more information , discuss additional6.testing options with your Certified IAQ Specialist .These screening methodologies are mold screenings only and therefore N OT intended for legal / lawsuit purposes. Any attempt to use them for7.legal purposes will be considered hostile and a distortion of their intended use which is to provide a reasonably priced screening alternative tomore expensive testing procedures. Should legal documentation be required we recommend that the client or customer consider utilizing theservices of a Licensed Industrial Hygienist who can control testing procedures.

COMMENTS
Many pages have been written regarding mold, mildew and the deleterious effects these have or may have on construction materials and our health . Formore information , please review our website at www . EnviroScreening.com and read the book entitled Mold-F ree Construction™ which is available atwww .Mold F reeConstruction .com. We also highly recommend Dr . Doris Rapp, Board Certified Pediatric Physician and Environmental M D and her DVD" Molds and Their E ffects" along with her popular book , " Is This Your Child " .
In an effort to help you sort through the information , we are providing this reference sheet along with information regarding ranges and the potentialcontamination that certain ranges may represent . Please read all the footnotes so you will have a clear understanding of what this screening process doesand does not represent . Drawing conclusions from information that a screening provides is best done by a trained mold professional who has beencertified by a national agency in the fields of indoor air quality, mold and other indoor air contaminants.
In most cases, and certainly where extreme remediation measures are considered, this screening test should be understood as simply being a "snap-shot "of what MAY be going on in the screened areas of your indoor environment . Settled-out spores can often be representative of a larger area but thecorrelation is still unclear between what you find in a square inch sampling versus what you might find in other areas of the environment . Yourprofessional partner will be able to direct you to a better understanding of this report .
The material found in this document has been reviewed by the N ORMI (N ational Organization of Remediators and Mold Inspectors at www . N ORMI.org)and is provided in agreement with their standards. Any specific questions may be directed to:

REFERENCE COMMENTS¹REFERE NCE CO M M E NT SH EET - There are many different types of bacter iathat can be found throughout our l iving environment. These may inhabit dustparticulate, soil and non-treated water . Examples: species of Bacil lus,actinomycete and nonfermentative gram-negative rods. Infections from mostof these isolates are not common, however , occurrence of infection wil l varybased on species isolated.
Acremonium sp. is another common fungus that is found in our environment , whichhas been reported to cause such ailments as mycetomas (swelling of tissues), keratitis(cornea), and other mycoses.Alternaria sp. is commonly found in our environment to include such places as soil,plants and decaying vegetation . H as been reported to cause keratitis (cornea), skin andnasal infections.Aspergil lus is found throughout our environment and disease caused by this fungus isrelatively uncommon . However , there are species of this genus that can cause bothinvasive and non-invasive diseases, most notably with immunosuppressed hosts.Allergic response to inhalation of the aspergilli has also been known to occur .Bipolar is sp. is commonly isolated in the laboratory from environmental samples, ithas been reported to cause sinusitis and allergies in some cases.Chaetomium sp. is a common laboratory " contaminant " naturally found in the soil,plants, or decaying vegetation . Infection is not common .Chrysosporium is a fungus that rarely causes disease . However , cases of endocarditisand osteomyelitis has been reported. Several species are keratinophilic and can causenail infections.Cladosporium is another common mold isolated in the laboratory. It is naturally foundin soil and in association with plant material. Infection is also uncommon; however ,infections of the sinuses, endocarditis, keratomycosis (cornea) and subcutaneouslesions have been noted.Curvular ia is a commonly isolated environmental mold and some species has beennoted to cause disease in man .Epicoccum is commonly isolated in the laboratory based on geographic location andhas been associated with allergies.Fusarium sp. is a common laboratory saprophyte commonly found in soil anddecaying vegetation . F usarium has been reported to cause keratitis (cornea).
Geotr ichum sp. is another filamentous fungi that is considered a common laboratorycontaminant , infections due to this organism is rare in man .Hyphal F ragments: are fragments/broken pieces of molds that are not completestructures and cannot , therefore , be fully identified.Monil ia sp. is a common laboratory filamentous fungi that can be found in samplescontaining soil. This organism is a common laboratory contaminant and infection isnot common .Paecilomyces sp. is a fast growing, common environmental fungus. Some specieshave been noted in cases of endocarditis, sinusitis, nephritis and infections in dogs.Penicil l ium is a fungus that is abundant in man's environment and is a commonlaboratory contaminant . Penicillium has also been known to cause a number humaninfections such as keratitis (eye / cornea), penicilliosis, otomycosis (ear), and rarely,deep infections.Rhizopus sp. is a common laboratory contaminant . Infection is not common ,however , cases of mucormycosis (various types of fungal infections) has been noted.Trichoderma sp. is a common filamentous fungi. Infections from this organism is notcommon but various aliments has been reported.Stachybotrys chartarum has been well publicized for being a potential agent incausing severe respiratory problems in young children and persons withimmun-osuppressed conditions. It is commonly referred to as " toxic mold " & "blackmold " .Steri le Hyphae: are molds/fungi grown in culture that has not produced spores andcannot , therefore , be accurately identified.Syncephalastrum sp. is a common environmental mold which is fast spreading inculture , nonseptate and could be mistaken for Aspergillus niger . A case of cutaneousinfection has been reported.Yeast are seen in nature from sources like soil, fruits, milk , plants, and feces ofnormal humans. Infections vary based on the species and sources identified.
NOTE: There is scientific evidence showing that persons withimmunosuppressed condit ions run the highest r isk of infection due toenvironmental factors such as bacter ia and fungal elements. Please see moreat www.EnviroScreening.com

* This information should only be used as general information for identification purposes only and not for diagnostic purposes. I t should benoted that mold & bacter ia are found throughout our environment and identifying mold in your environment does not necessari ly meanthat you have a mold problem . Please discuss your concerned with a certif ied mold professional in your area through www.NORM IPro.com
* Cultures submitted may have colony counts estimated based on the density of growth in the culture .
* Because acceptable counts may vary from laboratory to laboratory and are not well established, it is important to take cultures before treatment offacility and again after treatment of facility in order to ensure adequate reduction of colony forming units. Additionally, collection techniques should beperformed the same way each time a sample is taken and using the same type of media . * This methodology should be considered a screeningtechnique only. A more extensive analysis may be necessary. Please ask you IAQ Special ist or mold professional for interpretation of theseresults.
Recommendation: Air purification and mold remediation companies can help reduce the amount of particulate matter in the air , including the moldspore counts. (See your local Certified IAQ Specialist for more information and recommendations regarding air purification equipment and remediationoptions) Be sure to read the "SA N ITIZATIO N PROTO C OL " in www .Mold F reeConstruction .com for a better understanding of how to affect a significantchange .
