Cold storage rooms have perfect conditions for mold growth. Here's why: the lower temperature and limited air movement in these types of rooms present ideal conditions for condensation and moisture build-up, which in turn is ideal for mold growth. When the warm, heated air in the home hits the cool concrete walls of this area, it will reach its "dew point" and condense on the cold surface. The moisture from the condensation will not dry easily because there is limited ventilation or heat to allow for evaporation. Dirt and dust on the walls provides a medium for the mold to grow. Controlling the moisture in a cold storage room can be difficult. However, there are ways to reduce the amount of moisture. A good dehumidifier is one way to reduce the amount of moisture in the air. It is also important to make sure that there is sufficient weather stripping around the door to the cold room to block seepage of warm air into the room. When you remove mold from a cold storage room make sure you dry out the shelves in the room, perhaps aiding the process with a portable fan.

Are Indoor Humidity Levels Affecting Your Health?
The ideal indoor humidity level is either 35% to 45% or 40% to 50% depending on who you ask. Thankfully, the human body is quite flexible and you do not have too aim at an exact figure. The important thing is to avoid extremes. Living indoors is not entirely natural. The artificial environments that we create for ourselves can sometimes cause extremes of humidity to occur. For short periods of time this is nothing to worry about, but the long term effects can be quite unpleasant.

Black Mold on Wood Joists by Cleveland Home Inspector Marko Vovk
Cleveland home inspector explains the reason you have mold (mould) growing on your basement joists, basement sheathing, and other basement timbers. This surface "black mold" and other colored moulds are very common in old houses and new homes. Forest trees are cut down and the logs are sent to the "saw mill" to be cut. This wood is sawn into joists, rafters, studs, and beams. This wood is also sent wood processing plants to be fabricated into plywood, OSB, press wood, laminated wood, engineered wood, micro lambs, and TGI's. These finished timber products are then delivered to the lumber yard and stores like "Forest City" "Home depot" Lowes, Menards, and others. Regardless, whether the storage facility is interior or exterior, these storage areas generally have some moisture and some humidity. Additionally, the wood is still fresh due to it being recently cut and may still during out. Mold spores are everywhere and they will grow on any cellulose product if permitted. These freshly cut stored timbers which may still be drying out are made of cellulose. Mold spores attach and begin to grow. This fresh wood is then purchased and installed in new homes and new additions. During construction, the basements are wet, moist, humid, and dark. These are perfect environments for fungal amplification or mold growth. After the new windows, roof, doors, and siding installations are complete, the interior house moisture becomes trapped. This trapped moisture becomes much larger after ...

Tips on Taking Care of Your Washing Machine
I just love modern conveniences. Consider the modern washing machine for fabrics gone are the days when we had to take our basket of clothes to the creek to scrub the dirt on rocks rinsing by hand. Or how about scrubbing them in the sink at home and then running them through the old hand ringer. OK I bet none of us have ever hand scrub our clothes on a rock.

Humidity is described as the water vapor levels that are in the air that we breathe. When the air warms up, the vapor levels drop. As the air becomes heavy with rain, the levels begin to rise. Either of these extremes causes us to become uncomfortable and more susceptible to illnesses.

Humidifier or Dehumidifier - Which is Right for You?
In the winter, the humidity levels tend to be low due to continued use of furnaces and other heating devices. When this happens, we are left with dry skin, lips and eyes, which are uncomfortable, but can be dealt with. However, for some people, especially the very young, very old or those already compromised by sickness, the dryer air can leave them more susceptible to respiratory issues such as bronchitis and asthma.

The use of a home humidifier will bring the air moisture levels to where they need to be. There are several types of humidifiers to choose. A popular type of devise works by warming up water from a reservoir tank, the evaporated water is then dispersed through the home with the use of a fan system. Another system utilizes a continuous mist or steam that is dispersed through the whole house, putting the needed moisture into the air.
A dehumidifier addresses the opposite problem. When the air that we breathe becomes saturated with water, we become uncomfortable, the air is sticky and it is harder to breath. The most common way to deal with this problem is with the use of an air conditioner, which literally sucks the water from the air. This effectively lowers the moisture levels and makes us more comfortable.
If an air conditioner is not an option, the next most common way to control high humidity levels is with the use of a bathroom or kitchen exhaust fan; these are the two places where high humidity levels are frequently found. The exhaust fan pulls the high moisture air out of the room, resulting in a more normal air/water level.
Another way to dehumidify the air in a house is with a dehumidifier. The use of a dehumidifier becomes important in areas of the house that never seem to dry out, such as the basement; or if someone in the home has allergies to mold. Most molds are very common and are not anything to worry about, except in the case of an allergy sufferer. In this case, a dehumidifier should be used in the bedrooms of the person with allergies as well as in or around the high humidity areas of the home.
Humidifiers and dehumidifiers can be found in a size that is right for every house, in fact for every room of the house. They are sold in a variety of stores from home improvement stores to discount chains, from drugstores to online vendors. If you are unsure if the use of a humidifier or dehumidifier is what is needed for your health issues, talk with your doctor, he or she will let you know if the use of one of these devises will alleviate your symptoms.

Crawlspace - Underhouse - Floods - Water Under Your House Can Cause a Variety of Problems
Standing water or extremely damp soil in your home's crawlspace (under house) can cause a variety of structural problems and health concerns. Excess humidity caused by the evaporation of standing water or wet soil in your crawlspace can cause mold growth on the wooden foundation and the bottom of sub flooring. It can also cause warping or buckling of sub flooring and mold growth in the living area of the building. If your home has H.V.A.C. (heating , ventilation, air conditioning) ducting in the crawlspace and the system is compromised with excess moisture, microbial amplification may result. All of these issues can possibly create unhealthy indoor air quality. A broken sewer line in your crawlspace and the subsequent release of raw sewage onto your crawlspace soil can create an awful odor problem in your home. Also there are possible health concerns to the constant inhalation of sewer gas from an open or broken sewer line.

Some solutions to the problems mentioned above. Try to determine the source of the water intrusion and correct it yourself. This may be as simple as redirecting sprinkler heads, fixing leaky outdoor faucets or redirecting gutter downspouts. If you suspect plumbing problems, you should call a licensed plumber.
Often, there is too much water under your house for a plumber to properly inspect the pipes, you may need to call a Water Damage Restoration company. Many water damage companies offer crawlspace de-flooding and or sewage cleanup, should the leak be from a sewer drain line. After the water is removed and the crawlspace made accessible a plumber can check for leaky pipes. If your foundation is wet you may need a water damage restoration company to dry it for you, in order to prevent mold growth.
If you have over watering problems or a high water table you may need to contact a landscape engineer or a water proofing contractor to design a French drain system or other remedy to keep water from accumulating under your home. Many plumbing companies or water proofing contractors will also install sump pump systems in the low area of your crawlspace to help combat water pooling. You may also want to consider having a crawlspace dehumidifier installed to regulate the relative humidity to a level that will inhibit structural damage or mold growth. Another way to keep air flowing through the crawlspace (and thereby promoting evaporation) is by installing crawlspace ventilation fans over your existing crawlspace vents. There are also companies who can completely encapsulate your crawlspace with thick plastic, thereby effectively sealing your home off from the ground.
As you can see there are many problems that can arise from excessive water or moisture in your home or buildings crawlspace and just as many solutions. Should you suspect a problem that may need a professional solution, a good place to start is on the internet with your favorite search engine and a search for "crawlspace".

Run the machine on and extra rinse to get all the baking soda out.Here is a tip that should be really useful. You may have notice that your washing machine fills slower in cold than it used to it just seems to have gotten slower over time. Where the water hose connections attach on the unit on the line marked cold there is a filter in the hose and over time the filter gets plugged.Locate the cold water hose and turn off the valve.Remove the hose from the back of the washing machine (have a bucket to catch the water left in the hose.Look in the hole on the washing machine.Using a pair of tweezers remove the cone shaped filter.Take the filter to the sink and rinse until it is clear.Put it back together the way it came a part.Turn the washer on in cold and notice how the pressure picks up.

During this time of the year, heavy downpours are to be expected. During a heavy rain, a driver's range of visibility is greatly reduced. Whenever the vehicle in front makes an emergency brake, drivers should be able to react in time.
Due to the rain, the driver behind might not be able to notice and react accordingly. Therefore, rivers should reduce speed and take caution to avoid such accidents especially when driving in a heavy rain.
No matter often we've been told to drive safely, there are errant drivers out there who seem to always be in a rush. Though the speed limit is set at 110km/h, these drivers could be seen speeding at speeds higher than permitted. No amount of summonses could keep these drivers at bay, endangering other drivers on the road.

Why Should You Change Your Refrigerator Water Filter Every Six Months?
Why Should You Change Your Refrigerator Water Filter Every Six Months?
The life of refrigerator water filters is dependent upon the volume of contaminants in the water as well as the amount of use of the filter. Well water is more likely to contain contaminants not found in publicly treated water and may need more frequent filter changes. As a rule of thumb, the filter should be changed as specified by the manufacturer or at least every six months.

Why Should You Change Your Refrigerator Water Filter Every Six Months?
Carbon is the primary substance used in water filtration methods because carbon has the potential to absorb many of the chemicals found in water. Most refrigerator water filters, which meet NSF/ANSI 42 certification standards, use granular activated carbon (GAC) to attract chemicals and impurities responsible for bad taste and odor, such as those that are a by-product of chlorine. These filters are not capable, however, to rid water of more dangerous, health-threatening contaminants. The method by which water is channeled through GAC filters does not allow sufficient time to complete the absorption of such substances. Various bacteria are formed, trapped and allowed to multiply, which further contaminates water processed by the filters. Carbon is not capable to absorb heavy metals, such as lead. GAC filters may trap some heavy metals and sediments, but allow others to filter through to the output water. Failure to change the water filter, every six months, allows unabsorbed water contaminants and newly formed bacteria to saturate the filter, forcing the filter to leak contaminants back into processed water. The water output may contain more contaminants than the filter was intended to remove in the first place.
Technology has lead to the development of more absorbent carbon-based filters, solid carbon block filters. These filters include solid blocks of carbon to absorb contaminants from water. Water takes longer to strain through carbon blocks than it does carbon granules, so that carbon blocks provide sufficient time for the absorption of more health-threatening containments. While carbon block filters are capable to absorb toxics, pesticides, TTHM's and other contaminants, they cannot absorb heavy metals or contaminants that are by-products of agricultural fertilization, such as nitrates or sulfides. The composition of carbon blocks allows them to restrain heavy metals and bacteria away from output water, however, nitrates and sulfides are not filtered. Even so, carbon block filters are sufficient to meet NSF/ANSI 53 certification standards. Failure to change carbon block filters, every six months, allows contaminants to saturate the filter, forcing the filter to leak contaminants into the processed water. When sediments are not removed from water, those sediments buildup and corrode filter fittings and water fixtures, causing them to leak. This type of damage to filters and fixtures may cause the output water to contain more contaminants than the water input to the filter. Failure to change the filters might also reduce the water pressure, within the filtering system, forcing it to be ineffective.
Some refrigerator water filters may include fiber water filters. These filters are made of tightly wrapped fibers of rayon or spun cellulose, which trap rust, lead and other sediments found in water. When used alone, these filters are ineffective in reducing any chemical or health-threatening contaminants. Fiber filters are best suited for use with other types of filters to reduce the concentration of sediments. They should be replaced, every six months, to avoid a build-up of sediments that would force the filter to leak the contaminants back into the processed water.
