Hello,
I have an interest in indoor environmental mould risk calculations.
If there is a subject matter expert in this community or suggestions where I might find resources about it, I'd be grateful for a reach out or pointers.
thanks,
Frances McLean
I have a Extech IRT600 Daul Laser Infrared Thermometer with Humidity and Dew Point test meter.
Extech Instruments is a Flir company, the tester is now obsolete and I can’t see what, if anything, they have replaced it with. It is literally point and test, with a screen displaying information and a traffic light green, amber and red indicator lamp above it.
The tester gives a quick and clear visual indication of where black mould may develop, particularly in corners of rooms and helps to explain black mould issues to people.
It is part of the Domestic Ventilation testing kit I have, along with an air flow anemometer and moisture meter.
I have a couple of books, but I can only find one at the moment, the Dri-Eaz Restorative Drying manual, a good general reference, but over sixty quid second hand on Amazon, reference books are expensive!

Best of all, one of my neighbours was the National Franchise Manager for an insurance remediation company and he was a great source of information, if he didn’t know the answer to questions about drying buildings out after floods and leaks, and preventing black mould developing in the meantime, he knew someone who did, but unfortunately he has now retired
