Mold Air Sampling
Lab-analyzed indoor air quality test for mold spores. Recommended whenever you see water staining or smell mustiness.
Mold Air Sampling for Utah Properties
Mold air sampling collects spores from indoor air using a calibrated pump and impaction cassette. The cassettes are sealed and sent to an accredited microbiology laboratory, where a microbiologist identifies and counts spore types under a microscope. Indoor counts are compared to an outdoor control sample taken on the same day so we can tell whether what's indoors is normal background mold or something elevated and concerning.
Air sampling is most useful when you suspect mold but can't see it directly — musty odors, recent water damage, recurring respiratory irritation, or visible water staining without an obvious mold colony.
What's Included
Every OnSite mold air sampling test compares indoor spore counts to an outdoor baseline — the only way to know if levels are truly elevated.
Indoor + Outdoor Control Sampling
Two indoor samples plus a same-day outdoor control so we can compare against true environmental baseline.
Accredited Lab Analysis
Cassettes shipped to an accredited microbiology lab for analysis under polarized light microscopy.
Spore Counts and Types
Lab identifies and counts each spore genus — Stachybotrys, Aspergillus, Penicillium, and others.
Written Report With Interpretation
Plain-English interpretation of whether levels are normal background or elevated, with next-step recommendations.
