Clearwater, FL – June 5, 2002 – Pure Air Control Services, an industry leading Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) firm, has just held a very successful IEQ seminar entitled Understanding Mold in the Indoor Environment at their state-of-the-art Clearwater, FL training center. The seminar was a model of accomplishment, attracting over 30 attendees from throughout the nation and Caribbean. Organizations attending this acclaimed seminar were represented from CO, GA, NC, VA, LA, PR, and others.

Their highly qualified personnel are committed to professional and accurate identification of potential mold problems accompanied by certified lab analysis and proven remediation techniques. I look forward to a solid working relationship.”
Alan Wozniak, President/CEO of Pure Air Control Services said, “This turnout, coming during an industry wide boom and a time of great concern for health and safety, convincingly demonstrates how important today’s environmental professionals view the role that knowledge of the Indoor Environment can play in their businesses. The seminar taught the attendees how to cut costs by using simple yet proven sampling technologies, efficiently and effectively remediate contaminated environments, and understand the critical role of an Indoor Environmental Laboratory. Utilizing this knowledge, IEQ professionals and facility managers alike can enable workforces to proactively address IEQ issues. Understanding Mold in the Indoor Environment provided the foresight and techniques that will help today’s IEQ professional lead their companies into the future.”
