Re: Carl: Drop down ceiling

[Guest guest]

Barb,

Maybe.

If the test results show " high " mold - whatever that means - then

there is mold and you need to remediate. But the problem is when you

get " low " mold - whatever that means - or " no " mold because of the

high probability of negative results that do not properly represent

the true conditions. This is a problem with all methods of mold

testing but especially true with the Wallcheck test you ask about. So

you may need to open the ceiling anyway. <sorry>
