ATTIC MOLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
Condition 1 (normal fungal ecology): an attic environment that may have settled spores, fungal fragments or traces of actual growth whose identity, location and quantity are reflective of a normal fungal ecology for a similar indoor environment.
Condition 2 (settled spores): an attic environment which is primarily contaminated with settled spores that were dispersed directly or indirectly from a Condition 3 area, and which may have traces of actual growth.
WHAT CAUSES ATTIC MOLD?

DEW POINT
The temperature at which the water vapor contained in a volume of air at a given atmospheric pressure reaches saturation and condenses to form dew (condensation). The dew point varies depending on how much water vapor the air contains, with humid air having a higher dew point than dry air. When large droplets of condensation form, they are deposited onto cold attic surfaces as moisture. If the dew point is below the freezing temperature of water, the water vapor turns directly into frost by sublimation, resulting in mold amplification.
DEVIATING FROM ATTIC MOLD REMEDIATION PROTOCOLS
According to the IICRC S520 Standard and Reference Guide for Professional Mold Remediation, attic mold should be physically removed during remediation. Attempts to kill, encapsulate, cover or inhibit attic mold instead of proper source removal generally are not adequate. Since attic mold remediation projects are unique, only experience and professional judgment may justify deviation from industry standards. It is the responsibility of attic mold remediation professionals to determine and verify on a case-by-case basis that following standard mold protocols is appropriate.
Attic mold remediators should advise customers that follow-up assessment of affected attic areas by an IEP may be appropriate when 1) affected area(s) become visibly damaged, 2) a change in the condition of the material or its surroundings occurs, 3) there are health complaints, or 4) engineering solutions fail.
TRYING TO COVER OR PAINT OVER ATTIC MOLD
If thoroughly cleaned, there is no need to paint over attic mold because there should be nothing to hide from inspection. In addition, there is NOTHING that you can apply to, or spray on top of mold that will prevent it from growing. Nothing! If not properly remediated, the attic mold will grow right through or on top of the white coating.
THE GOOD NEWS ABOUT YOUR ATTIC
Quite often, attic mold is discovered during routine cabling, electrical work or a whole house inspection at the direction of a prospective home buyer. The discovery of mold in an attic adds considerable anxiety to an already stressful process of buying or selling a house. With all the mold information available on the internet, home inspectors and well-meaning friends, the thought of attic mold can be daunting.
The good news is that you don’t have to tear off the top of your home to address the mold. If the roof maintains its structural integrity, we at DryHero have had great success in simply removing the mold and leaving the original roofing materials intact! Better yet, it’s faster and far more cost-effective than removing the roof sheathing, shingles and gutters.
If you live near Lincoln Nebraska, and you’ve been told that you have mold in your attic, give us a call for a free evaluation and estimate.
GUARANTEED ATTIC MOLD REMEDIATION
DryHero guarantees the removal of your attic mold and that it will not return as detailed in our Written Guarantee. It’s important to correct the conditions that allowed mold to grow in your attic in the first place to prevent future mold growth. Preventing mold growth is simple; keep things dry. The ONLY component for mold growth that we can control in an attic is moisture.
Under normal conditions, mold should not grow unless an additional moisture load is introduced from an outside source (water vapor, roof leak, dryer vent, bathroom exhaust fan(s), basement flooding, water damage, prolonged and extremely high humidity, etc.)
