What Causes Mold in Air Duct (HVAC)?

In a humid New Jersey climate, air ducts are among the most common places to find mold. It has a lot to do with the fact that cooling of humid air often produces a lot of excessive moisture, such as condensation on cooling coils, collecting in dripping pans and so on. When this moisture gets in contact with dust and particles for a prolonged period of time, it’s a surefire recipe for a mold disaster.

Among the most common causes of air duct mold are:

• Dust, dirt, debris and pet hair collected in the vent
• Clogged air duct filters
• Using basic fiberglass filters in houses with pets and other sources of micro-particles
• Leaks around duct joints in attics
• Wetted fiberglass-lined ductwork surfaces
• Condensation on metal parts of HVAC units
• Improper use or absence of Drain Pans
• Damaged or missing foil vapor barrier
• Damaged or missing air duct insulation
• Poor initial installation of the air duct system
• Overly humid New Jersey environment
• Improper mixing of outside and inside air
• Saturated air coming from air conditioner evaporator
• Weak (slow) air flow coming out of the grill
• Improper AC unit size

Where does Mold Grow in the Air Ducts?

In air ducts (HVAC) you can find mold growing on:

On air filters
On Insulation
On duct lining
On dust, dirt collected on walls, grills etc
On pet particles, dead skin cells, etc
On drywall compound left from construction

We have written a helpful guide on how you can remove mold from your air duct.

How Dangerous Air Duct Mold Really Is?

Mold in air ducts can pose a serious threat to your health. Unlike cases where mold grows in isolated areas such as attic and crawl space, air duct mold has a potential to quickly spread mold contamination throughout the rest of your house, turning it in a health hazard.

If you start to develop mold symptoms and suspect you’ve got mold in your HVAC system, it is important to have a professional mold inspector thoroughly check your ducts as well as the rest of your house to make sure you don’t have a mold contamination on your hands.
