Mold Prevention and Remediation 霉菌预防与治理
Mold, which refers to fungal organisms that spread by sending spores through the air, is one of the most common threats to healthy IAQ. Mold spores pose a variety of health risks, including triggering allergic reactions and asthma attacks, increasing the likelihood of developing asthma, and other adverse health effects.
霉菌是一种通过空气传播孢子的真菌，是威胁室内空气质量（IAQ）的常见因素之一。霉菌孢子会引发多种健康风险，包括过敏反应、哮喘发作，增加患哮喘的概率，以及其他不良健康影响。
Mold is ubiquitous, and all it needs to grow is water, a temperature that can sustain life, and an organic material, like wood, paper, or dust.
霉菌在环境中无处不在，其生长仅需三个条件：水分、适宜的温度，以及木材、纸张、灰尘等有机营养物质。

Green Building Strategies 绿色建筑策略
Green buildings control moisture during building construction and operations to prevent mold growth. Areas and items that need to be kept dry include:
- Building materials (including during construction and materials stored over time)
- Places that are out of sight (e.g., inside the building envelope, between a hot-water pipe and its insulation, under the carpet, and similar hidden places)
- Mechanical and plumbing systems, especially in areas where condensate collects
- Interior finishes, such as plastic wallcoverings
绿色建筑通过在施工和运营阶段控制湿度来预防霉菌生长，需保持干燥的区域和物品包括：
- 建筑材料（包括施工过程和长期储存的材料）
- 隐蔽区域（如建筑围护结构内部、热水管道与保温层之间、地毯下方等）
- 机电与给排水系统，尤其是冷凝水易聚集的区域
- 室内饰面，如塑料墙面材料
During building operations, it is not enough just to keep building materials dry. Project teams must also implement routine and proactive maintenance to keep indoor humidity levels in check, maintain effective ventilation, and regularly inspect for leaks. Musty odors can be a warning sign of mold, so occupant feedback can also be a trigger for action.
在建筑运营阶段，仅保持材料干燥是不够的。项目团队还需执行定期预防性维护，控制室内湿度、维持有效通风，并定期检查泄漏问题。霉味是霉菌滋生的警示信号，使用者反馈也应作为排查的触发点。
If mold does grow, remediation can be disruptive, expensive, and lead to resources being wasted. Therefore, it is essential to control moisture in order to prevent mold growth before it begins.
一旦霉菌滋生，治理过程会干扰建筑使用、成本高昂，还会造成资源浪费。因此，控制湿度、在霉菌生长前进行预防是关键。
