Mold Infestation Can Cause Serious Health Risks And Can Render A Property Valueless

PRLog (Press Release) – Oct 02, 2008 – Mold damage is estimated at several billion dollars per year -- After suffering massive losses from mold claims (estimated at $12 billion in 2005), the insurance industry began excluding mold claims from all insurance policies in 2005. Since mold infestation can cause serious health risks and can render a property valueless -- this shifts the burden of mold prevention and remediation onto the property owner.

5 million water heaters flood homes each year causing nearly $4 billion in insurance claim payout's  according to the Insurance Information Institute.

The potential losses and expenses occurring from water and mold damage are astounding when left undetected. Replacement costs from extensive mold damage can range anywhere from $10,000 to $50,000 per moderately sized home.

The difference between a simple mop-up job or $10,000 - $50,000 in costly repairs from mold and water damage that insurance companies do not cover is simply placing The Affordable Water Alarm throughout your home wherever high risk water leaks may occur such as near Water Heaters, Washing Machines, Dishwashers, Toilets, Under Sinks, Etc.
