Home Ventilation

Air movement and exchange is a key component in making it tougher for mold to settle and begin growing. Using ventilation fans in the kitchen and bathrooms assists in keeping the air circulating. Opening windows on sunny days for a period of time will also help the exchange of old air to new, fresh air in your home.
