If asbestos or mold has been discovered, you certainly don't want to cross-contaminate the rest of your home. The PENOCO team takes your health and safety seriously.

We will evaluate risks of cross contamination based on your specific situation. As necessary, our skilled technicians can utilize state of the art processes and equipment to prevent the contamination from being spread throughout the indoor environment during the abatement/remediation process. This can include airborne contamination, contamination from clothing, heating, and air conditioning ducts, and others.

Indoor remediation can include localized abatement process, or a full containment process. Depending on our evaluation, and in accordance with strict federal, state, and local regulation. This may include:

Creating a custom containment area which is enclosed in plastic and taped to control air transfer with adjacent areas during the abatement process.

Having technicians change into disposable clothing and shower as they exit the containment area.

Utilizing negative air pressure from high capacity exhaust fans. These fans are equipped with a HEPA filter designed to capture asbestos fibers.

Waste Disposal:

Asbestos disposal is regulated by the same government agencies which regulates its removal. In order to protect the environment and eliminate the risk of exposure, the removed asbestos is placed into specially designed "burial" bags, which provide proper identification and tracking.

The bags are manifested, tracked, and transferred to a state certified landfill, which accepts hazardous waste.

By following this process, we are protecting the environment, and completing the removal process.
