DLP-CH-T103: Pdf Document in the field of Central Heating Heating theory and heating techniques Fungal Bridge & Mold Formation
The Pdf document discusses fungal contamination and its potential health effects in indoor environments. Fungal spores and fragments, which can be released from contaminated materials, pose a risk to human and animal health if they are inhaled. Dampness and moisture-related problems in buildings are a significant cause of fungal contamination, which can be harmful to occupants. Indoor sources of fungal particles include exclusive indoor sources and outdoor infiltration, with ventilation systems also contributing to indoor fungal growth. Maintaining proper ventilation systems and controlling moisture in indoor environments are essential to prevent fungal growth and reduce the risk of adverse health effects associated with indoor fungi. The text also discusses the causes of fungi and mold growth indoors, including high humidity, leaks, poor ventilation, condensation, flooding, and dampness. To address these causes, a whole-home dehumidifier is recommended to reduce indoor relative humidity levels, condensation, and dampness, which can hinder mold growth even in the event of a leak or flood. Finally, the text discusses mold growth in buildings and its four necessary factors: mold spores, food, appropriate temperature, and moisture. The document also includes some multiple choice exercises to evaluate the knowledge that the students gained from the theoretical part
