The InstaScope Protocol™
Our Step-by-Step Guide is specific to InstaScope, designed by researchers, and verified by service providers.
Scan, Analyze, Report, Repeat
The InstaScope inspection procedure looks a little different compared to other clipboard-and-cassette, swab-and-send routines. Our protocol was specifically designed with our technology in mind and created in partnership with world-renowned research scientists and IAQ consultants.
From Scan to Solution: How it Works in 5 Steps
Beyond Basic: InstaScope’s Protocol-Driven Scan Types
Most inspectors walk in, take a few samples, and bounce. InstaScope users? They operate on a different level – delivering a three-phase scanning protocol that goes deeper, faster, and smarter.
“What's in the air when nothing is disturbed?”
This passive, undisturbed scan sets the baseline. It reflects the normal, lived-in air quality—perfect for understanding day-to-day exposure.
“Let’s pinpoint likely mold sources.”
Walk the space and watch the readings live. InstaScope pinpoints elevated areas — helping you identify sources of mold activity that traditional methods could easily miss.
“Let’s stir things up and see how bad the air can get.”
Agitate soft surfaces like carpets or upholstery and scan again. This exposes how much particulate matter (including mold) is hiding just below the surface—and how easily it becomes airborne.
Anyone can take a sample — InstaScope gives you the full story
No other protocol is this thorough. Most inspections offer offer a few samples and a 3-day wait. With InstaScope, you gain live insight.
