Essay:
low air leakage and natural ventilation were not associated with higher measures of mold growth"We found that low air leakage and natural ventilation were not associated with higher measures of mold growth. Analyses found that moisture sources in the houses were a more significant factor in mold and dust mite antigen levels than relative humidity. Visible mold area was not a good predictor of ergosterol concentrations, indicating that hidden mold growth may be a factor." -- Lawton 1998
