Spring is almost here! The temperature is starting to even out and we know that soon, April showers will be upon us helping new buds to spring up on trees and setting us up for the summer. Of course, this time of year can bring increasing humidity as the rain falls more than usual. We at HNST Mold Inspections know that mold loves moisture and it thrives during this time of year. That’s why this time of year is a great time to get your home inspected for mold and to get the mold removed before the moisture arrives.
Since there is usually a checklist for a homeowner for spring cleaning, spring lawn cleanup and other things to do around the home, adding mold inspection to the list fits in perfectly. As you work to remove dust, clean debris and go through the basement you may run into signs of moisture problems, or even visible mold. This is particularly true for unpacking stored air conditioners, give these portable or window units a good cleaning and inspect them for mold. You want to make sure that they are completely clean before use.
In the case of central air, this is not so easy and it is best for you to call in a certified inspector who can ensure that your air ducts are free and clear of mold. Experts can also offer you tips to keep your home free of mold such as reducing moisture. Call us for your spring mold inspection and get ahead of the game!
