FIBERGLASS AND MOLD


Fiberglass insulation will not sustain mold growth. However,
mold can grow on almost any material when it becomes wet
and contaminated. Carefully inspect any insulation that has
been exposed to water. If it shows any sign of mold it must be NOTES
discarded. If the material is wet but shows no evidence of mold, it When condensation is permitted to occur between nested Black
