Mold growth in basement duct runs
Why it happens here
Pine Grove basements flood more often than homeowners expect, and the duct insulation stays damp for weeks afterward. Mold starts growing on the duct surface and releases spores every time the system runs. Older homes near Pine Grove Cemetery are the most affected.
Our approach
We inspect every basement run with a camera, clean the affected sections with a rotary brush, and treat visible growth with an EPA-registered product. We also check the duct sealant at every joint and reseal where it has failed.
