Mold in Your Ductwork Is Serious
Mold and mildew thrive in dark, damp environments โ and your HVAC ductwork can be an ideal breeding ground, especially in Maryland's humid summers. Once mold establishes itself inside your ducts, every time the HVAC runs it spreads spores throughout your entire home.
Symptoms of mold in your duct system include musty odors when the HVAC runs, unexplained allergy or respiratory symptoms, or visible mold growth near vents or the air handler. If you suspect mold, do not wait.
- Musty smell when heating or cooling runs
- Visible dark spots near vents or registers
- Unexplained respiratory or allergy issues at home
- Recent water damage or flooding in your home
- High indoor humidity levels
