Good to know
HVAC & Air Duct Mold Remediation in Long Grove, IA: 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.
Do I need to leave my Long Grove home during the work?
Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Long Grove home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.
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.
