Guest guest Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 Aerodynamic forces in ventilation systems cause variable increases in the release of toxins from spores and give the false impression that the HVAC systems must necessarily be the primary source of mold contamination. It feels just that much worse when the system is operating! Many brand new ventilation systems installed in moldy environments give instant " hits " that mold responders associate with cycles of operation. Increased symptoms result from disturbance of spores creates an increase in neurotoxic exposure that sensitive people can easily detect. This is one of the clues that indicates that spore counting is inherently flawed in assessing mycotoxin exposure. Every mold responder who experiences the " hit " differential from a ventilation system that does not contain mold growth can clearly feel that although the ambient average of spores remains an average constant, the exacerbation of symptoms from conditions of mycotoxin release through aerodynamic forces changes the level of neurotoxic exposure dramatically. There is simply no comparison between the symptoms from ambient levels of spores and the exacerbation from the same amounts of spores which have been subjected to change in velocity. You don't require scientific analysis to validate this anomaly to conventional models of mold exposure, you can feel it. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
