By adding ducting to The Portable, the requirement can be met for S520 of IICRC for negative pressure during remediation, and then after remediating; The Portable can be used without the ducting for an air scrubbing mode, ensuring even the most minuscule spores are eliminated.\u00a0<\/p><p>The Portable also includes indoor air monitoring by Vertices AQS, which will provide a digital dashboard through a mobile or web application so that a person can visually see when particle counts align with standard values. It also ensures that if you have to run an air test for mold remediation, the test will pass because a constant measurement has already occurred.<\/p><p>Regarding mitigation, both the CleanWhite and The Air Guardian can help reduce the chance of fungus and mold. In addition to eliminating spores in the air, the Air Guardian also helps to lower humidity, creating a less hospitable environment. CleanWhite directly and continuously attacks surface microbes and can penetrate biofilms.<\/p><p>Click the button below to learn more about illumiPure&#8217;s product suite.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-270fe70 elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"270fe70\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-md\" href=\"https:\/\/illumipure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/portable-restoration-flyer.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Download Our Restoration Flyer<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With Air Guardian\u00ae and CleanWhite\u00ae, a unique combination of technologies can be added to remove fungi and mold from indoor environments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3779,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[5,6,8],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.3 -
