Air scrubbers aren’t a gimmick — they’re how a mold job stays contained instead of spreading through your house. During every remediation, Mark Clymore runs commercial HEPA air scrubbers to hold negative air pressure and pull airborne spores out of the work area, so the cleanup doesn’t end up in your living room. It’s the same builder’s discipline he has brought to job sites across Atlanta and Gwinnett County since 1985: control the environment, and you control the problem. Air scrubbers are a core part of our mold remediation process.
Upon inspection of the home or office if necessary we write up a quote for mold remediation. It is always recommended per protocol that negative air pressure is set up if at all possible. Quite often you cannot have negative air pressure in every room that you’re working in so we have big air scrubbers that we bring around in every room that we are working in.
The idea is simple: pull the air through dense HEPA filtration and capture the microscopic spores floating in it. The execution is what matters — Mark sizes and positions the units so contaminated air moves away from the clean parts of your home, and pairs them with sealing and dehumidification to hold the space below the 55% humidity mold needs to grow. Ozone treatment can also knock out the musty odors that linger after a moisture problem. It’s a far deeper clean than any household air purifier, aimed squarely at what you can’t see.
Our air scrubbers are not ordinary air purifiers. Designed to handle the heavy-duty task of mold spore removal, they go beyond mere filtration. Using advanced HEPA technology, they capture tiny mold spores, bacteria, and other allergens, ensuring the air you breathe is as clean as it can be.
An air scrubber pulls in air from the environment and passes it through a series of filters, the most crucial being a High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter. The HEPA filter is designed to capture tiny particles, down to 0.3 microns in size. This includes mold spores, bacteria, dust, pollen, and other allergens that can impact air quality and human health.
Notably, the efficiency of a HEPA filter increases with time. The more particles it traps, the more it gets ‘clogged,’ actually enhancing its filtering ability. Once the air is filtered, it is returned to the room, significantly cleaner and healthier to breathe.
But the job of an air scrubber extends beyond mere particle removal. Many models also include a layer of activated carbon in their filtering system, which aids in odor control. The porous nature of activated carbon allows it to absorb a variety of odors, from musty smells to cooking odors, providing a comprehensive air treatment solution.
In essence, an air scrubber serves as a sentinel for your indoor environment, continually drawing in air, purifying it, and releasing it back, thus maintaining a continuous flow of clean, breathable air. At Clymore Mold Remediation, we use advanced air scrubbers to ensure that our mold remediation efforts are complemented by superior air purification, providing you a safer, healthier living or working space.
Yes — completely. HEPA air scrubbers simply filter the air, so they’re safe to run around people and pets. Ozone treatment is different: it’s used in unoccupied spaces to clear odors, and Mark ventilates the area before anyone returns. He handles both correctly so you get cleaner air with no risk.
It depends on the size of the area and how severe the contamination or odor is. Mark gives you an estimated timeline up front, once he has seen the space.
Throughout the remediation. Mark runs them continuously to hold negative air pressure and pull airborne spores out of the work zone, so the mold can’t cross-contaminate the clean parts of your home while he works.
When it comes to the air in your home or business, you want the person who will actually run the equipment and stand behind the result — that’s Mark. Across Atlanta, Sandy Springs, Johns Creek, Cobb, Fulton, and Gwinnett County, Clymore Mold uses professional air scrubbers and ozone machines as part of a complete approach that finds the moisture source and cleans the air for good.
