Are You Worried About A Mold Infestation In Your Hermitage/Donelson Hotel?

1/8/2024 (Permalink)

A mold infestation is a big deal, and you’re wise to be vigilant in preventing one from being established at your Hermitage/Donelson hotel.

Any home or commercial property can succumb to mold growth in as little as 48 hours if exposed to increased moisture or a water source. Some mold growth can produce allergens and irritants, so you must proactively ensure your hotel property stays mold-free.

What Are Some Effective Ways To Prevent Mold At Your Location?

Here are some practical ways you can prevent mold from becoming a severe issue at your Hermitage/Donelson location:

• The key to mold prevention is moisture control. The most crucial initial step in prevention is a visual inspection. Regular checks of your drainage systems and building envelope should be made to ensure that they are in working order. Identify and, to the extent possible, eliminate sources of dampness, high humidity, and moisture to prevent mold growth. Wet spots and wet, non-moldy materials should be cleaned and dried as soon as possible (preferably within 24 to 48 hours of discovery)
• Ventilation systems should be checked regularly, particularly for damp filters and cleanliness. A preventive maintenance plan should be implemented for each major component of the building’s ventilation system. Components exposed to water (e.g., drainage pans, coils, cooling towers, and humidifiers) require scrupulous maintenance to prevent microbial growth and the entry of undesired microorganisms or chemicals into the indoor air stream.
• All components of the system must be cleaned. Failure to clean a component of a contaminated system can result in re-contamination of the entire system. Water-damaged or contaminated porous materials in the ductwork or other air-handling system components should be replaced. Have your ventilation system filters checked regularly to ensure they are correctly seated. Filters should be replaced on a routine schedule.
