  1. The leading causes behind mold growth inside HVAC equipment are Humidity, Condensation and Poor Ventilation. Keeping your air conditioner running in humid weather is a proactive step. Mold also likes stale air. Running your air conditioner provides proper air circulation in your home thereby preventing mold's growth. 

    These maintenance tips help you prevent mold from taking over your heating and cooling equipment:

    1.     Schedule seasonal air conditioning preventive maintenance tune ups. 

    2.     Inspect your drip pans and make sure they are cleaned on a regular basis. This prevents condensation buildup and ensures the drainage system is clog-free to prevent mold growth.

    3.     Use a high efficiency air filter and replace it on a regular basis, as recommended by the manufacturer and your HVAC technician. Filters with a MERV rating of 5 to 13 offer capture of mold spores circulating through your air supply to prevent their spread – the closer to MERV 13 your filter, the better protection you have.
