Signs of Mold in Your Ducts

Mold grows quietly over time, often going unnoticed until it begins affecting your indoor air and health. Moisture and dust inside ducts create the perfect environment for this growth.

Spotting early warning signs is crucial. A timely response can stop spores from spreading and affecting your indoor air. Here are the indicators to watch for:

  • Musty odors coming from vents whenever the HVAC runs.
  • Black or green spots visible around duct openings or grilles.
  • Increased allergy symptoms or coughing among people indoors.
  • Unusual dust buildup on vent covers or registers.
  • Damp, clammy air in rooms connected to affected ducts.

What Causes Mold in Your Ducts?

Air ducts often provide the right conditions for mold to grow. Low light, limited airflow, and a buildup of dust and moisture allow mold to thrive. Once spores take hold, the HVAC system spreads them throughout your home or business. Several common issues contribute to mold growth inside ducts:

  • High indoor humidity
  • Dirty, clogged filters
  • Poorly sealed ducts
  • Condensation on walls
  • Water leaks nearby
  • Dust and debris

Health Consequences of Moldy Ducts

Mold spores can trigger a host of reactions the moment they reach your lungs. People with asthma or allergies may experience wheezing and throat irritation. Even healthy individuals can face headaches and persistent coughing when exposed to lingering spores.

Some molds release mycotoxins that weaken the immune system over time and may cause skin irritation or respiratory issues. Clean ducts protect everyone’s health and keep your daily activities uninterrupted.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes mold growth in ductwork?
Mold thrives where moisture pools and dust collects. Leaky duct seams, high indoor humidity, or condensation on cold vents feed spores that settle inside ducts. Regular inspections and cleaning stop mold at its source.
How often should I schedule professional duct cleaning?
We recommend cleaning every three years for most properties. However, annual servicing can help mold-prone environments or people suffering from allergies. We assess your system’s condition and suggest an appropriate cleaning frequency for you.
Can I clean moldy ducts myself?
DIY kits lack the power to remove mold deep inside ductwork. Our professionals use sealed systems and vacuums to capture spores without spreading them. Trust our trained techs for safe, thorough mold removal.
How long does professional duct cleaning take?
We finish most residential jobs in two to three hours, depending on system size and mold severity. Commercial buildings may take longer. You’ll get a clear timeline before we start so you can keep plans on track.
Will duct cleaning remove that musty smell?
Yes. Cleaning strips away mold, dust, and debris that trap odors. We also treat duct surfaces with an EPA-approved antimicrobial solution, leaving vents smelling fresh and preventing spore regrowth.
Is duct cleaning covered by warranties or insurance?
Standard HVAC warranties don’t cover mold-related cleaning. Some insurance policies cover mold remediation, but limits vary. We provide detailed reports and before-and-after photos to help with any claims.

Teasdale Fenton responded to a flooded lower level due to a failed sump pump within 90 minutes of being called on a Friday night. Corey and Zack efficiently cleared what needed to be moved out of the way and then removed the water. They set up fans and a large dehumidifier. The next day a team came out to check on everything and measured for dampness.

We had a pipe burst in our attic over a weekend and called Teasdale- Fenton. They sent someone out same-day to quote us on cleanup from the water leak and sent a team out the following day to remove wet insulation and leave Fans to dry everything out. Before removing the fans they moisture tested the whole area. Very pleased with their prompt and professional service.
