Air Purification

Why Air Purification is Important

When your property experiences water damage, whether from flooding or leaks, the risk of mould, mildew, and bacteria growth increases significantly. These contaminants can severely affect the air quality inside your home or business. Poor indoor air quality can lead to various health issues such as respiratory problems, allergies, and even asthma. It is critical to address air quality issues immediately after water damage to prevent long-term health complications.

Air purification not only removes airborne contaminants but also helps control damage to your property and unpleasant odours, ensuring that your property smells fresh and clean. After a flood or water damage restoration, air purification is essential to restoring a safe and healthy environment.

Common Causes of Poor Indoor Air Quality

Several factors can lead to poor indoor air quality, especially following water damage. Here are the most common causes:

• Mould and Mildew Growth: After a flood or water damage, mould can quickly begin to grow in damp areas. As mould spores are airborne, they can spread throughout your property, contaminating the air and leading to health issues.
• Water Damage Restoration: While water extraction and drying are essential steps in the restoration process, any remaining moisture can contribute to mould growth and poor air quality.
• Sewage Contamination: A sewage backup can introduce harmful bacteria and pathogens into your indoor environment, contaminating the air and causing unpleasant odours.
• Structural Damage: If your home or business has sustained structural damage due to flooding, dust and debris can contribute to poor air quality until the area is fully cleaned and purified.

At Flood Services Perth, we understand the impact of these factors and provide effective air purification solutions to remove contaminants and restore a healthy living or working environment.
