MTL_Inspet_Man Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Ran across this article this morning while perusing the paper over coffee. Go to the link. Wonder if there is any validity to this or just a gimmic. As far as I know we in Canada have not been affected by this yet. At least in Quebec. Happy reading. http://www.montrealgazette.com/Business ... story.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonguy Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Hi Joe, No nothing in Quebec I've seen or heard of yet, but there are cases in BC and Toronto I've heard about. Whether this will become the new mould/UFFI/Vermiculite is yet to be determined by the populous at large. It's funny, I was just reading posts from Henri Chero on another Inspectors Forum yesterday.(A much less reputable site than this one ...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTL_Inspet_Man Posted July 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Yep still trying to figure out how it works These unts look like a huge canister vac and all air passing thru gets ejected back into the building ????????? Trying to figure how thy convert the bad sulfurous air into good air just using a charcoal filter?????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottpat Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 This guy was over on InspectionNews hawking his machine a month or so ago. It uses HEPA filters to do the work. For those of you that have been doing EIFS inspections for a few years you might have heard of Spiderman (Scott) Mulholland, this is a FL inspector who is selling them for this guy in the States.

MTL_Inspet_Man Posted July 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Right so I an assuming there is no chemical conversion of the fumes happening Just concentratin all of the guck on the filter in the machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Of course, It's just an air filtration unit; nothing special. All it's going to do is remove sulfur from the air that passes through it - it can't stop the off-gassing, so there will always still be some level of sulfur in the contaminated air that hasn't been scrubbed yet. It's a bandaid on a gaping wound. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
