Mold in your air conditioner can be dangerous?

Mold will release spores that are easily inhaled if it grows in your home. Molds can cause nasal stuffiness, throat irritation, coughing or wheezing, eye irritation, or, in some cases, skin irritation, according to the CDC. Mold allergy sufferers can experience more serious symptoms. People with weakened immune systems and those suffering from chronic lung disease

Mold that grows in an air conditioner isn’t really more harmful than mold that grows elsewhere in your home. The aim of the HVAC ducts is to disperse air throughout the building, while the role of an air conditioner is to spread cool air throughout a room. They can effectively spread mold spores through an entire room or the entire house if they become infected with mold.

If the concentration of mold spores is high enough, you will have a mold problem all over the house, rather than only in one room, and you will be inhaling mold spores even while sleeping.

Elias and crew were great to work with. Their estimate was in-line with others I received, but they were much faster in both getting me on their schedule and completing the work than the others. They did a fantastic job and I’d use them again in a heartbeat.

We needed an asbestos report for a tear down and rebuild. It couldn't have been easier they showed up took the samples they needed and quickly got the report back to us back to us in a couple days. Elias Hernandez was our services agent 👍👍👍

I am very pleased with the work performed by Environmental Services Of America. Elias came out to look at a job, talked to me through it until I understood the entire process. They showed up on the schedule day and worked till the job was done. Elias sent pictures of the progress every day and when I got back to the house it was perfectly clean, they could not have done a better job.
