The process

The hvac & air duct mold remediation process in Newton Upper Falls, MA

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.

Remove

Affected duct surfaces are cleaned with HEPA equipment, and lining that cannot be cleaned is cut out.

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 Newton Upper Falls, MA: 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.

Will my insurance cover hvac & air duct mold remediation in Newton Upper Falls?

It depends on the cause. When the mold follows a sudden, covered event, there is often coverage. Insurance is accepted, and the contractor works with your carrier and documents the loss so the Newton Upper Falls claim keeps moving.

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.

Do I need to leave my Newton Upper Falls home during the work?

Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Newton Upper Falls home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.
