Question for vendors and seasoned property managers.
I’ve had a leaking window/wall for a year. The property is telling me the vendors will be coming into remove the Sheetrock and will be running air purifiers and a micro scrubber - which I assume is an air scrubber.
During my time, anytime we had to use an air scrubber it was typically on a vacant make ready. No one was ever home.
The property manager where I live is saying we can be home...

They will also secure the area if it's large enough with plastic so no spores can get out. It's inconvenient, but you can stay in your apartment ????

Ozone machine is when you can’t be in the unit

I’ve had it in apartments that are occupied and the vendor put up plastic sheeting to close off the areas

Cyndi Daniell Yeah I know they’ll put up plastic and seal it off. They said up to my patio door which is my entire living room from where the damage is ????

As long as the damaged area is properly contained, it's fine to be there. Yes, it's inconvenient as f, but your health isn't at risk. Moreso if they wait and allow additional growth, a) the PM has a fiduciary and ethical responsibility to the owner to protect the asset and b) do you want to live with it, or worse, move? No expenses would be reimbursed for the latter, most likely including a hotel, because it is a liveable and fixable situation.

I typically only use my hepa air scrubbers when doing a remediation in an occupied unit.

Some air scrubbers are safe for occupied homes and some are not. Just be sure to find out about the specific one being used.

Purifier or ozone treatment?!? Ozone nothing living can be in the unit at the time of service.
