Stop Summer Mold Before It Starts: Ensure Proper AC Ventilation

Jun 15, 2024

Your AC might be your best friend during the summer heat, but its cooling process can create a hidden enemy: mold. This happens because AC units produce moisture, like condensation on a cold glass. If this moisture isn’t properly drained away due to poor ventilation, it can build up in your ductwork and AC components. This damp environment becomes a breeding ground for mold, a silent threat to your indoor air quality and health.

Signs Your AC Needs a Ventilation Check-Up

While you may not see the mold itself, several telltale signs indicate improper AC ventilation and potential mold growth:

  • Musty Odors: A persistent musty or earthy smell emanating from your vents could be a sign of hidden mold growth.
  • Reduced Air Quality: Mold spores can irritate allergies and respiratory issues. If you or your family experience unexplained allergy symptoms or difficulty breathing after using your AC, mold could be the culprit.
  • Reduced System Performance: Clogged ducts due to mold growth can hinder airflow and reduce your AC’s efficiency, leading to higher energy bills and potential equipment strain.
