Note: A $39 lab processing fee must be enclosed when returning the dust specimen to the laboratory.
1. "The device sat in the hot car for two days, not in the direct sun though. Will that affect the result?"
The heat to that degree should not affect the mold spore count to any degree at all. We will proceed with your sample and forward the report to you ASAP.
2. "If the test is supposed to give a volumetric result as to the amount of mold, does it matter how long we ran the vacuum? If we ran the vacuum for six to ten minutes and the next person only does it for one minute, how can you give a volumetric estimate as to the amount of mold?"
Air samples are based on volume, whereas "dust samples" are based on weight. Therefore each sample is reported in mold spores per gram of dust. What is really important to a person having this test run, is what that means. As you will see from the report, when you receive it, you will get actually 3 report segments. The first is a graph in green, yellow, orange and red depicting the number of mold spores relative to usual levels. Then you will see a Table with that same data. Both have the mold names and types. Then, you will have an interpretive paragraph that tells you what all that means. The report, as you will see, is produced in full color and is 3-4 pages.
