Who Needs Professional HVAC Sanitizing and Disinfecting?
Many homeowners can benefit from
HVAC system cleaning, sanitizing, and disinfecting. Most AC and heat pump systems are prime targets for mold. They provide moisture, enclosed spaces, and have plenty of air flowing through to accumulate mold spores.
Even if there aren’t noticeable signs of mold or even a musty smell coming from your HVAC system, occasional sanitization is a great way to prevent mold growth in the first place. Of course, if you do notice black spots or a stale, musty smell, you should seek out professional HVAC sanitization right away.
Mold can have a serious impact on the health of anyone inside your home, especially those with asthma or other respiratory conditions. It’s not worth taking the risk of living with mold. The issue won’t go away on its own and can, in fact, spread to other parts of your home. The best time to deal with mold is right now!
How Often Should Sanitizing and Disinfecting Be Done?
A complete sanitizing and disinfection of your HVAC system should be done every 2 to 3 years, whether or not you have visible mold issues. This is generally enough to avoid the buildup of dirt and debris contributing to mold and fungus growth.
However, this isn’t always the case. There are many potential contributing factors, and the heat and humidity we get here in Florida are among them. If you start to notice signs of mold or fungus growth like visible black dots or musty odors, don’t hesitate to seek out professional help. There’s no benefit to putting off sanitizing and disinfecting when you really need it.
Is HVAC Sanitizing and Disinfecting Safe?
Yes, sanitizing and disinfecting are safe. While the cleaning solutions and equipment used should be handled by professionals, they don’t leave any lasting residue that could pose a potential health risk to residents or pets. The cleaning solutions are developed to kill mold and fungus but aren’t harmful to humans are to the materials to which they are applied.
What isn’t safe is living with mold. Mold spreads spores all throughout your home’s air, and you’re breathing them in constantly. When mold is in your home, you can find yourself with nasal congestion, itching, rashes, and a variety of other symptoms. In the long term, it can cause even more serious issues.
