We Neutralize Invisible Dangers

Pre-occupancy Health & Safety Assessment

Hidden Building Dangers Threatening Occupant Safety

Buildings harbor invisible contamination that conventional inspections cannot detect, creating serious health risks and liability exposure for property owners, managers, and tenants.

Beyond Visual Inspection

Standard building inspections only identify visible problems while missing dangerous contamination that threatens occupant health. Hidden biofilms, toxic gases, and chemical contamination create Sick Building Syndrome conditions that can devastate tenant health and property value.

Critical Hidden Contamination Sources:

  • HVAC System Biofilms: Bacterial and fungal contamination in air handling systems distributing pathogens building-wide
  • Drain and Plumbing Biofilms: Healthcare-associated infection sources in sinks, toilets, and drainage systems
  • Appliance Contamination: Biofilm buildup in refrigerators, washing machines, and dishwashers
  • Toxic Gas Accumulation: Hazardous gases from building materials, mold, and biological contamination
  • Chemical Off-Gassing: VOCs from building materials, furnishings, and cleaning products
  • Hidden Mold Growth: Concealed fungal contamination in walls, ceilings, and HVAC systems

Critical Building Health Dangers

Hidden contamination creates serious health risks that can cause immediate illness and long-term health problems for building occupants.

HVAC System Biofilm Contamination

Bacterial and fungal biofilms in air handling systems distribute pathogens throughout buildings, causing respiratory illness and infections.

  • Legionella bacteria causing deadly pneumonia
  • Aspergillus mold triggering severe allergic reactions
  • Antibiotic-resistant bacteria spreading infections
  • Building-wide contamination distribution through air systems

Drain and Sink Biofilm Hazards

Healthcare-associated infection sources in plumbing systems pose serious risks, especially for vulnerable populations.

  • Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections
  • Pseudomonas aeruginosa respiratory infections
  • Cross-contamination from toilet plume bioaerosols
  • 360° biofilm coverage requiring specialized treatment

Appliance Biofilm Contamination

Refrigerators, washing machines, and dishwashers harbor dangerous biofilms that contaminate food, water, and clothing.

  • Listeria monocytogenes food contamination (20% mortality)
  • Serratia marcescens infections from pink slime
  • Cross-contamination of clean dishes and clothing
  • Antibiotic-resistant bacteria in appliance biofilms

Toxic Gas Exposure

Hazardous gases from mold, building materials, and biological contamination cause serious health effects.

  • Ammonia gas from biological contamination
  • Hydrogen sulfide from drain biofilms
  • Mycotoxins from hidden mold growth
  • VOCs from building materials and furnishings

Hidden Mold Contamination

Concealed mold growth produces toxic compounds and spores that cause serious respiratory and neurological effects.

  • Black mold mycotoxins causing neurological damage
  • Aspergillus species triggering severe allergic reactions
  • Stachybotrys toxins affecting immune system function
  • Spore distribution through HVAC systems

Sick Building Syndrome Development

Multiple contamination sources combine to create building-related illness affecting all occupants.

  • Respiratory symptoms and breathing difficulties
  • Neurological effects including headaches and fatigue
  • Skin and eye irritation from chemical exposure
  • Reduced productivity and increased absenteeism
