Clean mold mildew
We carry a good selection of products to help you control moisture
and mold & mildew problems. The most important thing to do is
clean the areas that have mold and mildew present. Some helpfull
products can be found below along with some excellent links to resources
that describe how to clean mold and mildew effectively.
Our products can cover as little as 10 sq.ft. up to 500 sq.ft.
quickly and effectively.
If you have a moisture problem or a musty odor in your basement,
house, rv or boat, consider our three step process to help eliminate
the moisture and the mold & mildew associated with it.
Step 1: Consider HOW the moisture is getting into your basement,house,
rv or boat and focus on trying to prevent moisture from entering your
living areas. Consider WHERE your downspoats are draining and make
sure they are draining away from your house at least 10 feet from
any part of your foundation. If you have underground drainage, make
sure it's not blocked with debris. You may need to have a professional
drainage expert examine your system. The key thing is making sure
the water is draining away from your house and not into it! If you
notice damp spots outside that remain soggy on the side of your house,
consider installing additional drainage to help elminate water from
this area. Water left standing will find the least resistant path.

of downspouts can be found here.
Step 2: After you've determined WHERE the moisture is coming
from, it's now time to eradicate it from your living areas. We carry
two products that can help you. Dri-Z-Air products are designed
for small enclosed spaces and are non-electric dehumidifiers. Each
unit covers a 10 X 10 area. For larger areas, we reccomend the Goldenrod
Dehumidifier line. Goldenrods are electric but require no maintenance
and the largest unit can cover approximately 500 cubic feet. These
are great to basement moisture control because they work all year
long. Goldenrods are different than any other dehumidifier on the
market and require no maintenance once they are setup and plugged
in. They warm the air just enough to push the moisture out of the
living area. You can find Goldenrod & Dri-Z-Air products online
at our webstore. Click
here to goto our online ordering site. The next step is to determine
the square footage of the area you wish to dehumidify.
Step 3: Once you've determined the sqaure footage of the
area you wish to dehumidify, consider the following:
1. Dri-Z-Air units are great for small enclosed spaces. Examples:
Closets, small store rooms, crawlspaces, areas WITHOUT electricity,
garages & attics. If you have several rooms in your basement,
consider purchasing 2-3 units per room, depending upon the square
footage. Each unit covers a 10 x 10 area.
2. For larger areas, consider purchasing a Goldenrod Dehumidifier.
We carry various sizes which cover as little as 200 cubic feet all
the way up to 500 cubic feet. These are excellent for year around
coverage and NO maintenance.
