What Are the Signs of Mold in Ductwork?

  • Mold in your ducting can lead to health problems, such as sneezing and coughing, headaches, fatigue, itchy and watery eyes, trouble breathing, impaired concentration, and others.
  • You notice dark-colored spots on vents that aren't rust or dirt. There may also be black or dark gray dust around air vents.
  • Musty or unusual odors permeate the house, especially when your HVAC system is running.

How Can Mold in Ductwork Be Removed and Prevented?

  • Have a mold inspector confirm that what you have in your ducting is black mold or another type of harmful mold. If whatever is growing in your ductwork is a harmless variety, then whatever is causing your symptoms may be lurking somewhere else inside your home and still needs to be located.
  • If there's mold growing on the insulation around ducting, remove and replace it.
  • Change AC filters regularly according to how many people and pets live in your home (see filter instructions). 
  • Locate the cause of your home's excess moisture and take steps to stop water intrusion. Leaks in roofs, AC condenser hoses or coils, or high humidity can all contribute to mold growth in the ductwork.
  • Have your mold remediation specialist remove the mold from your ductwork with the proper cleaners.
