ERMI Molecular Mold Kit

$275.00

The ERMI test is an industry standard that offers a highly accurate and easy-to-understand method for assessing mold presence and health risks in a home. This analysis was developed by the EPA with the sample collected by vacuuming dust from carpet. For non-carpeted spaces, select the Survey of Indoor Mold KIT (SIM).

Key Features:

  • Comprehensive Detection: This panel includes 36 mold species, with 26 linked to water intrusion events such as Stachybotrys chartarum, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus versicolor, and Penicillium chysogenum. The remaining 10 species are exterior molds that act as the outdoor control.
  • Carpeted Space Sampling: This test is specifically designed for carpeted spaces, with samples vacuumed from the carpet into a sterile dust collector (included with purchase). If your space lacks carpet, consider the SIM KIT, which tests for the same 36 mold species collected from dust on any surface.
  • ERMI Score Included: The ERMI score, which ranges from -10 to 20, provides a relative moldiness index based on the levels of mold present. A higher score indicates a higher potential for mold-related health risks.
  • User-Friendly: Receive an easy-to-understand report that clearly outlines the findings, helping you take informed action.

  • Storage: retest from archived samples.

What to expect in a Molecular Molt Kit
Sampling Instructions: easy to follow instructions accompany the video “How to use the BIG 2 testing kit” (appropriate for all molecular mold swab sampling). For the best results, sample dust accumulated within the last two weeks.

Sample Collection Materials: dust Collector, Gloves, and Sterile Swab in a protective case.

Chain of Custody Form : include this form with your sample.

Project Notification: you will receive an email notification when your project arrives at the lab.

Detailed Report: once testing and analysis are complete, a report will be delivered to your email with analysis results.

3-day Turnaround Lab Time: results are reported within three business days upon sample arrival at the lab.
