Your Business and Indoor Air Quality

SERVPRO Cleaning Services

Sick Building Syndrome

Healthier Air Saves You Money

In the 1970s, sick building syndrome became apparent as groups of people displayed similar symptoms after having spent extended periods of time in buildings with poor air quality. Good judgment and immediate attention can correct the situation and save you money in the event of litigation. People most at risk include:

		Infants and children.
		Pregnant women.
		Elderly.
		People with compromised respiratory systems or asthma/allergies.
		People with weakened immune systems.

While molds are found naturally in the environment, an overabundance inside buildings is undesireable; some people can become ill. Experts disagree about the more controversial details of mold, but they all agree that if you have excessive mold, it needs to be removed.

Control Moisture and Reduce Mold

Act Within the First 24 to 48 Hours

		Correct any water leaks or standing water.
		Remove standing water under cooling coils or air handling units.
		Properly maintain humidifiers, if used.
		Replace wet or visibly moldy insulation materials.

Proper Maintenance Saves Money

Estimates made by the World Health Organization say that poor indoor air quality costs $60 billion in employee sick leave and lost production. Part of your responsibility to the tenants, workers and students who work and play in your buildings includes proper maintenance and prompt response to any situation that could cause illness or health concerns. SERVPRO® Professionals are available when it matters.
