Q: Why is mold growing in your home?

• <div><p>Areas of your home may provide an ideal environment for green or black mold. Most molds love moisture and will thrive in wet or damp areas. Some types of mold, such as Stachybotrys chartarum, grow well on materials commonly used in homes, such as gypsum board and wood. Mold may also grow in areas where there are leaks, such as in bathrooms, kitchens, or basements.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if I think I’ve been scammed by an air duct cleaning company?

• <div><p>Unfortunately, you probably don&rsquo;t have much legal recourse if you think you&rsquo;ve been scammed by an air duct cleaning company, but there are some actions you can take. Your first order of business should be to report the issue to the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Your complaint will show up to other customers doing research and, ideally, prevent the scammer from getting to other homeowners. You can also leave a negative review on online review sites. If you got scammed out of a large amount of money, you may want to seek legal counsel for advice.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance ensures exhaust systems function efficiently?

• <div><p>Regular cleaning, sealing ductwork, and ensuring proper airflow paths keep systems functioning optimally, maintaining energy efficiency.</p></div>

Q: Is it possible to clean your own air ducts?

• <div><p>While homeowners can find <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/duct-cleaning-equipment-pros-should-use.htm">DIY air duct cleaning tools</a>, full duct cleaning is not recommended due to the complexity and specialized equipment required for the job. You can perform basic maintenance tasks like changing filters and vacuuming vents, but you can&rsquo;t access all areas of the ductwork. It&rsquo;s also not safe for homeowners to try to use high-powered vacuums and handle potential contaminants like mold and dust. Hiring a certified air duct cleaning service is the best option for a comprehensive and safe cleaning.</p></div>
