NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Dry buildings do not tend to grow mold. Dry buildings do not happen of their own accord; they must be planned by everyone on the building team.

"Environmental consultants are suggesting that HVAC systems in buildings may cause mold growth," said George A. Jackins, P.E., as he kicked off a seminar titled "Mold: Where Do We Stand Now?" during the Annual Meeting of the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers.
