New Florida Home Inspection / Mold Law
In a effort to protect the
citizens of Florida, Florida Governor Crist signed Mold / Inspection legislation (SB2234) into law. The new law will regulate
the Mold Inspection industry and Home Inspection businesses and individuals.
Individuals will need a license
and businesses will need to be certified. The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation will
handle the licensing and the company certifications.
Effective date:
July 1, 2007
Grandfather clause:
until 2010 (for those who do not qualify for license yet) |
One
very important aspect of the new law the consumer should understand is that Mold Inspections and Home Inspections are two different professions, with
separate licenses and regulations. |
| |
When hiring
a home inspector in Cape Coral, Ft Myers, Estero, Bonita Springs and all of Lee County homebuyers should understand that may
do mold testing as a side job. A new Florida law scheduled to go into effect in 2010 will require anyone performing
mold assessment to be licensed.
Homebuyers
would be wise to check the qualifications of anyone they hire to determine if a home has a "mold problem".
If your home inspector can NOT interpret
the lab analysis and must rely on someone else, perhaps you need a more qualified mold inspector.
Can your home inspector interpret your
lab results?
http://www.epa.gov/mold/moldcourse/chapter3/lesson3.html
"Sampling for mold should be
conducted by professionals who have specific experience in designing mold sampling protocols, sampling methods, and interpreting the results." EPA
"Experience in interpretation of results is essential.”
EPA
Many home inspectors in Lee County hire independent qualified professionals for mold inspections
and testing. They do not do mold inspections and testing.
Mold Certifications:
Note: Only the AmIAQC requires verified experience approved by board to be certified.
Council-certified Indoor Environmentalist (CIE) - 2 years experience required
Council-certified Residential Mold Inspector (CRMI) - 2 years experience required
The American Indoor
Air Quality Council promotes awareness, education and certification in the field of indoor air quality. Our
mission is to establish credible certifications that provide value to certificants, their clients and the public. It
is our goal to serve the public interest with integrity as an independent certifying body.

Florida regulates Radon thru
the Florida Department of Health.
If you hire someone to perform a radon test or radon mitigation they
must be certified by the FL DOH.
Florida
Adminstrative Code: 64E-5.1203 General Provisions (1)
"Begining
January 1, 1989, no person may test for or mitigate the presence of radon in Florida for
a fee or other renumeration unless such person has been certified."
"It is
a violation of Chapter 404, Florida Statutes and Chapter 64E-5, Florida Administrative Code to provide radon services without
being currently radon certified by the Florida Department of Health. Specialists and technicians must provide radon services
only through affiliation with a Florida certified radon business. Businesses and individuals will be fined for non compliance."
