Moho en HVAC en Overtown: lo que debe saber
Overtown's historic stock includes some of Miami's oldest residential buildings — structures from the 1920s–1940s with minimal insulation and original plumbing have high rates of hidden mold in wall cavities from decades of slow pipe failures.
Urban redevelopment and renovation activity in Overtown frequently uncovers latent mold in demolished or opened wall assemblies — pre-renovation mold assessment is essential in this neighbourhood.
