Our mold testing kits are unique in that they are the same tools that mold professionals use to test for mold. You can choose the kit or package that meets your needs. If you want to test just one room for the air quality, then the basic air testing kit may be sufficient to start with. If you’re not sure which kit is suitable for your needs, please contact us by Phone at 905-290-9101 and we’ll provide you with information to help you decide.

When do you perform air testing? When you can’t see mold growing anywhere, but you suspect it may be there because of a musty smell or earthy odor, or even sickness. Even when visible mold is present, you may want to collect air samples to determine if your family was exposed to elevated amounts of airborne spores and what types.
When do you perform surface testing? When you can see visible mold growth and you want to know whether it’s toxic or not. In most cases people also collect air samples where there is visible mold growth because it’s not the mold on the wall that affects our health but the airborne spores.
Basic Air Quality Mold Test Kit…..$220 + Shipping
Package Includes:
- RENTAL of Air-Sampling Equipment (1 day rental only),
- Sampling Instructions,
- 2 FREE Air-O-Cell cassettes, 1 for indoor air sample and the other for outdoor sample,
- Analysis of samples by a recognized laboratory. The turn-around time for sample analysis is 3-5 business days,
- A detailed laboratory report with results interpretation,
- FREE on phone professional consultation to help you decide if further investigation and/or remedial action is necessary.
How many test cassettes should I order?
Simply put, order one for each room that you wish to test plus one for the outside control sample. For greater accuracy, if you have an area of concern (complaint area), it is recommended that you test in both that area as well as a non-compliant area including the outside. The outside sample helps us to know which mold spores are likely to be coming from outdoor (when we open windows and doors) and which ones originated from indoor mold growth.
If you need to test air in every room of your house (recommended) you select a package with enough cassettes to cover all the rooms (see the dropdown menu below).
