Mechanical Hygiene Inspections

After Before

Envirotech Clean Air recently cleaned and restored the HVAC Mechanical systems and ductwork at an area hospital, after heavy mold growth was found. The project took the Envirotech team into the emergency room, ICU and other critical care areas. Work was performed over long weekends and extended several weeks, with the Envirotech team working nights and weekends.

Problem: Severe mold growth on the HVAC Mechanical system components and interior of the supply ductwork serving ICU suites, emergency room and other critical areas.

Remediation: The internal fi berglass lining in the ductwork was removed and the sheet metal ducts were scraped, cleaned and scrubbed with a fungistat. The interior ductwork and the air were tested by an independent industrial hygiene consultant and found to be clean.

Coordination: The emergency portion of the project was performed over one weekend with 24 technicians and supervisors working 13 hour shifts. The project was coordinated with the HVAC Mechanical contractor, hospital facility personnel, and the independent industrial hygiene consultant, and continued nightly until complete.

COMMERCIAL AIR DUCT CLEANING AND INSPECTION

Envirotech specializes in cleaning home owner’s contents and family living areas for clients who are sensitive to chemicals or cannot tolerate moldy items or surfaces. The professionals at Envirotech Clean Air take pride in being the specialty cleaning and remediation company that very sensitive clients can depend on for results.

We work with indoor environmental consultants and developed a strategy for every project. “Every client is different”, said Vice President Steven Goselin, “we employ customized strategies that work for the individual homeowner or client.”

The Typical Problem: Homeowners that are very sensitive to mold and chemicals have an Indoor Environ-mental Consultant fi nd elevated levels of mold or contamination. They work with the consultant to diagnose and repair the source, and then write a very specifi c plan for remediation that takes all of their sensitivities, circum-stances and needs into account.

The Remediation: Envirotech Clean Air’s project consultants and supervisors work with the homeowner and Indoor Air Professional to plan and execute the site specifi c remediation. Trained professional technicians and supervisors contain contaminated areas with engineering controls and contaminated porous building materials are removed. All surfaces in the work are cleaned of mold using HEPA fi ltered vacuums and any designated products. Contents are handled and cleaned according to the scope of work written by the consultant and agreed to by the homeowner and Envirotech. If any new areas of concern are discovered, the homeowner and consultant are contacted. When the project is complete, a post remediation verifi cation should be performed by the environmental consultant. Envirotech pays special attention to sensitive homeowners needs.

The Coordination: Consultants, homeowners and Envirotech work together with any other trades involved to have the stressfulness of work being completed successfully go as smoothly as possible for everyone involved, especially the homeowner.

NEW NADCA STANDARD FOR AIR DUCT CLEANING, ACR 2013

PROJECT: A Hospital in Vermont Problem: Severe mold growth on the interior duct mastic inside the cold deck ductwork serving hospital surgical suites. Remediation: The ductwork was cleaned and the duct mastic was scrubbed with a fungistat, tested by an independent industrial hygiene consultant, and coated with an HVAC sealant. Coordination: The project was performed on off hours and was coordinated with the HVAC Mechanical contractor, hospital facility personnel, and the independent industrial hygiene consultant. PROJECT: FAA Air Traffic Control Tower Problem: Severe mold growth throughout the tower and base building. Air traffic controllers exposed and sensitized to a point the several were unable to continue work. The location was the nation's 25 th busiest airport and the tower was operating throughout the project on a 24/7 by 365 schedule. Remediation: All contaminated HVAC Systems were cleaned and inspected by third party. The HVAC units and all systemcomponents (ductwork, VAVs, Fan Powered Boxes, etc.) were cleaned, inspected, photographed, and videotaped. Coordination: Envirotech Clean Air coordinated with the FAA, building services, IH firms and duct cleaning consultant; the building tenant's and the tenant's IH firms and other critical care stakeholders. PROJECT: A 38 story Boston High Rise Office Building Problem: Improper internal insulation installation in all high pressure duct work on 38 floors lead to premature degradation resulting in airborne fiberglass binder material. Remediation: Remove all internal fiberglass in the high pressure ductwork down to bare metal and seal the ductwork. Clean all associated ductwork, VAV boxes and diffusers. Coordination: Envirotech coordinated with the building's owners, tenants, property management team, consulting engineers, industrial hygienists an multiple trades. All work was performed during off hours and was completely "invisible" to the building's occupants. This building is high profile with every floor being custom fitted out for the various tenants.

OUR PROJECTS ENVIROTECH JOINS ASHRAE AS IAQA AND ASHRAE MERGE COMMERCIAL AIR DUCT CLEANING AND INSPECTION

ASHRAE and the Indoor Air Quality Association (IAQA) have agreed to join forces, combining resources to improve indoor air quality in the built environment. ASHRAE was formerly the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers. “Dan Greenblatt, President of Envirotech Clean Air, Inc. and treasurer of IAQA, was a part of the management oversight and search team which fi elded proposals from Association Management and related Indoor environmental associations, to be IAQA’s new management team. “ASHRAE formed in 1894 and has over 170 chapters and 54,000 members” says Dan. “We are proud to be a part of such a world class association both nationally and at the Boston Chapter”.

IAQA will become a part of the ASHRAE organization while maintaining its own brand and Board of Directors. IAQA will operate independently within ASHRAE’s organizational structure. IAQA headquarters has relocated from Rockville, Md., to Atlanta, Ga., home of ASHRAE’s international headquarters. The agreement was reached between the leadership of both associations and confi rmed at ASHRAE’s 2014 Annual Conference that concluded July, 2014 in Seattle, Wash, and the move was completed on August 15. 2014.

This merger is benefi cial to both ASHRAE and IAQA in that it strengthens the programs and services of both organizations,” Tom Phoenix, ASHRAE president, said. “The work of IAQA complements the work of ASHRAE in its standards, research, publications and educational offerings. We now combine our resources to ensure the industry receives the best indoor air quality technical guidance and educational programs possible, which means improved indoor air quality for the world around us.” Visit www.ashrae.org
