Mold in Hotels is a Hidden Yet Dangerous Problem

Hotels rely on word-of-mouth and repeat guests to keep a steady stream of business. Few things will hurt a hotel’s reputation more than the presence of mold. Here’s a look at why New Jersey mold removal should be a priority for all hotels.

Mold Risk Factors in Hotels

• Guests are constantly adjusting in-room air conditioning units for their own comfort. Along with controlling temperature,  air conditioning creates condensation that forms a breeding ground for mold.

• Wallpaper and carpeting, elements of just about every hotel room, trap moisture and provide organic nutrients mold loves to feed on.

• Hotels require a large water supply system, increasing the possibility of leaks, burst pipes and flooding.

Tips to Control Mold Growth

• A high-quality professional housekeeping staff is a must for any hotel. Employees should be thoroughly trained to recognize signs of mold and report them promptly to their supervisor.

• Turn off air conditioning in any unoccupied rooms.

• Reduce condensation by insulating partition walls.

• Be respectful and courteous if a guest reports a mold issue. Do everything possible to place them in more suitable accommodations. Exceptional customer service goes a long way toward maintaining the good will of guests.
