Avoiding the Health Dangers of Bathroom Mold & Mildew

With more and more people spending time in their homes these days, and as a result of the warm, humid summer months resulting in added moisture in homes, homeowners today face a significant health issue here in the Lowcountry: mold and mildew. Mold contributes to various health problems, especially for those with allergies, existing respiratory issues, or weakened immune systems. It is more important than ever that homeowners do whatever they can to reduce moisture in their homes and prevent the growth of dangerous toxins.

One of the biggest culprits for the growth mold and mildew in homes today — and the resulting health problems many in the Lowcountry may be facing? Unwanted moisture in bathrooms and leaky showers causing the accumulation of this unwanted moisture. It’s something that many people do not consider as a problem or understand as a health threat. Still, with today’s growing health concerns, there are things that homeowners can do to minimize their risks – and it starts with having the right shower.
