You don't always need to SEE water to have a moisture problem.
Sometimes, you just need to know where to look.
Take this photo from a recent project. Our technician's meter was reading approximately 69% relative humidity inside this room.
For comparison, Baxter generally recommends keeping indoor relative humidity around 35–40%.
Why does that matter?
Mold needs moisture or humidity to grow. When indoor humidity stays elevated, you're creating conditions that can allow mold growth, sometimes before you ever notice anything visibly wrong.
That's why the number on this meter isn't just a number.
It's a clue.
If you've had a leak, water intrusion, persistent musty odor, unusually humid rooms or you're simply concerned about what may be happening inside your property, don't wait for a visible mold problem to start asking questions.
Baxter can help assess the situation, identify potential concerns and, when appropriate, perform mold sampling and remediation. Baxter's mold samples are analyzed by an independent third-party laboratory.
