Water Leaks, Termites and Mold Discussed in New Video
The IAQ Video Network releases another educational production about important environmental, health & safety (EHS) issues.
Phoenix, AZ -- Today, the IAQ Video Network and Cochrane & Associates announced the release of their latest educational video. Their newest production discusses property damage from mold and termites caused by water leaks in a home or building.
“When water damage occurs, its presence can not only ruin and destroy building materials and personal belongings, it could also result in mold contamination and a termite infestation,” said Paul Cochrane, President of Cochrane and Associates and the IAQ Video Network. “Some types of termites are attracted to water damaged wood and moisture will support the growth of mold on many wet materials in as short as 48 hours. We hope this new video helps to shed some light on the importance of promptly addressing water leaks to help prevent mold contamination and termite infestations.”
This educational video was sponsored by a number of organizations and leading industry professionals that work to protect and enhance the public’s health. Sponsors include: EMSL Analytical, LA Testing, Clark Seif Clark, Zimmetry Environmental, Hudson Douglas Public Adjusters, VOETS and Healthy Indoors Magazine to name just a few.
