The process

The hvac & air duct mold remediation process in Rancho Santa Fe, CA

Inspect

Ductwork, register boots and the air handler are checked for visible growth and for the moisture feeding it.

Contain

The system is shut down and sealed off from the rest of the home before any cleaning starts.

Dry

The moisture source gets addressed, whether it is condensation, a crawl space leak or a drain pan backing up.

Good to know

HVAC & Air Duct Mold Remediation in Rancho Santa Fe, CA: common questions

How do I know if my ductwork has mold?

A musty smell that strengthens when the system runs, or visible growth around vent covers and register boots, are the common signs.

Will the moisture causing the mold get fixed?

The source is identified, condensation, a crawl space leak or a humidity problem, and either corrected directly or handed to an HVAC technician.

Do I need to replace ductwork with mold in it?

It depends on the material. Sheet metal duct usually cleans up, while flex duct and fiberglass duct board often have to be replaced.

How soon can you start hvac & air duct mold remediation in Rancho Santa Fe?

The line is answered 24/7, and a crew can usually reach a Rancho Santa Fe home the same day you call, sooner for an active leak.

Can I clean duct mold myself?

Ductwork is hard to reach safely, and cleaning it without containment pushes spores through the whole house, so it belongs to a crew with HEPA equipment.

Does a humidifier make duct mold more likely?

It can. Evaporative coolers push a lot of humidity through the ductwork, especially when the system is not well maintained.
