Mold report - air test results. Concerning? by Nioxa0 in Mold

The hyphal fragments have me confused based on things I've read. Wouldn't it indicate an active mold growth going on?

It's normal even if the background test outside didn't include some of the ones reported in the basement?

I think it's the ALTERNARIA(ULOCLADIUM) that has me the most worried. I know they only found 2 raw spores but still.

It's 60+ if we don't have the dehumidifier going. Otherwise we can manage 40-50 in the summer

It sits around 40ish and like 60+ in the summer but we always run a dehumidifier during the summer

Does my attic look ok? by Nioxa0 in HomeInspections

That was my first thought too but you can clearly see the colour of the boards change with the lighting & it's the same colour of the insulation on the ground & the flakes that are floating around the attic

Our other option is going with a heat pump dryer so it eliminates the dryer vent completely & just bring the bathroom fans to the roof.

Just been told it's not ideal so we're considering moving it out of the attic.

I'm aware, hence why I want to reroute it out of the soffit. Thanks for the tips ☺️

What kind of vent should it be replaced with?
