Hiring a Mold Test Company Company performing mold test should follow a published industry
standard for where and how to test for mold. There are several very good standards for mold testing and inspections, IESO, ESA, IAC2 are the
most widely used. Only IESO
is an accredited standards development organization by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). http://www.ansi.org/ Company performing the test should be able to determine if the Air Test indicates elevated mold count exists. Why would you want a lab hundreds of miles away determining if the mold
count is high (yes or no)? Sample Mold Test

using Infrared Thermal Imaging Cameras, moisture meters, provide detailed documentation of suspect conditions with recommendations
