Should You Have the Air Ducts in Your Home Cleaned?
ABSOLUTELY! You should consider having the air ducts
in your home cleaned if there is substantial visible
mold growth inside hard surface (e.g., sheet metal) ducts or
on other components of your heating and cooling system.
There are several important points to understand concerning
mold detection in heating and cooling systems:
-
Many sections of your heating and cooling system may not
be accessible for a visible inspection, so ask the
service provider to show you any mold they say exists.
-
You should be aware that although a substance may look
like mold, a positive determination of whether it is
mold or not can be made only by an expert and may
require laboratory analysis for final confirmation. For
about $50, some microbiology laboratories can tell you
whether a sample sent to them on a clear strip of sticky
household tape is mold or simply a substance that
resembles it.
-
If you have insulated air ducts and the insulation gets
wet or moldy it cannot be effectively cleaned and should
be removed and replaced.
-
If the conditions causing the mold growth in the first
place are not corrected, mold growth will reoccur.
