Classes of Mold

9/12/2017 (Permalink)

Like we always say, mold is everywhere and not all molds are harmful to us! Molds are often found in wet, damp places and can vary in color and smell. Mold is put into different categories based on their hazard:

Hazard Class C:

While this group of molds are not health hazards – they can cause structural damages, and are recommended to be removed.

Hazard Class B:

These are molds that if endured over long periods of time can cause allergic reactions

Hazard Class A:

These are the molds we want to identify and remove immediately! These molds create toxins and if not handle correctly the air quality of a structure with steadily decline.
