During mold removal, disturbing contaminated materials releases millions of spores into the air. Without proper containment and filtration, mold spreads throughout your entire property.
Negative pressure containment keeps mold spores from spreading to unaffected areas of your property.
HEPA filters capture 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns, including mold spores and mycotoxins.
Industrial machines process thousands of cubic feet per minute for rapid air purification.
A negative air machine creates negative pressure inside the containment area by continuously drawing air out through HEPA filters. This prevents mold spores disturbed during removal from escaping into clean areas of your home or business. It's a required component of IICRC S520-compliant mold remediation.
True HEPA filters capture 99.97% of airborne particles 0.3 microns or larger. Since most mold spores range from 2–100 microns, HEPA filtration is highly effective at removing them from the air during and after remediation.
Negative air machines run continuously throughout the entire remediation process — typically 24–72 hours for most projects. They continue running until post-remediation clearance air testing confirms spore counts have returned to normal background levels.
It depends on the extent of contamination and remediation scope. For large or toxic mold projects, temporary relocation is recommended. Our technicians will advise you based on your specific situation during the initial inspection.
No — they work together but serve different purposes. HEPA air scrubbers filter the air inside the containment zone. Negative air pressure containment uses the filtered exhaust to create a pressure differential so that any air leakage flows inward, not outward. Both are used simultaneously for maximum protection.
