The presence of mould in an air conditioning system is a common complaint. Mould is a sneaky little bugger. It can grow, and proliferate (mould starts to grow in as little as 48 hours), and make building occupants sick without ever being seen. And the fastest way to spread mould throughout a building is through the air-conditioning system.
The reason this complaint is so common is that mould is
always present in any building, and in the air-conditioning system,
to the extent it is present in the building’s environment.
It is well-known that air conditioning systems can harbour mould, bacteria,
and fungi, which could lead to the development of diseases for any building’s
occupants, if the system is not well-maintained, regularly cleaned, and
sanitised.
Increased dust, or humidity from poorly maintained systems can result
in symptoms such as allergic reactions, and the combination of both creates
the perfect environment for mould to spread, which can cause chronic respiratory
problems to develop, as well as headaches, fatigue, weakness, fever, chills,
flu-like symptoms, shortness of breath, coughing, chronic sinusitis, sore
throat, burning eyes, and difficulty concentrating.
O3 Chemicals has developed powerful, new generation, new technology, non-corrosive
chemicals, specifically designed to remove health-threatening mould, bacteria
and fungi in air conditioners.
Many organisations across South Africa have entrusted O3 with the task of ensuring their air conditioning systems are kept clean, in good order, operating at maximum efficiency, and that their indoor air quality is all that it should be . . .
