"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

White mold is generally considered less harmful than black mold, which can be more toxic due to the mycotoxins it produces. However, white mold can still be harmful, particularly for individuals with mold allergies, asthma, or other respiratory conditions. Exposure can cause symptoms like nasal stuffiness, throat irritation, coughing, or skin irritation, and it can exacerbate existing health issues. Because any type of mold can pose health risks, all mold infestations should be treated seriously. Prompt remediation is necessary, and you should take proper precautions, such as wearing protective gear and using appropriate cleaning agents, when dealing with it.

Not all molds are inherently harmful, but their presence can lead to health issues, especially for individuals with allergies or respiratory problems. Black mold often garners attention due to its potential toxicity. However, other molds can cause health concerns too. Regular mold, appearing in various colors like green, gray, brown, or black, can trigger allergies and respiratory problems. Prompt removal and prevention measures are essential, regardless of mold type, to maintain a healthy indoor environment.

Mold can grow on garage ceiling insulation, which is why it’s important to install a vapor barrier behind the insulation and keep the space cooled and heated as you would your living area. Doing so will more or less eliminate the risk of mold growing on your garage ceiling insulation. You can also install a self-draining dehumidifier to help remove moisture, or opt for a foam board insulation or spray foam insulation that won’t harbor moisture and mold.

Yes, mold can easily grow under your hardwood floors, especially if your house has recently flooded or if there is a leak from a pipe under the floor. Hardwood floors can trap moisture beneath them, creating the perfect environment for mold to grow. Similarly, mold can also grow under your wood floor’s surface paint.

Bathroom tiles can contain asbestos, just the same as patio tiles or kitchen tiles. Remember that asbestos was used primarily for its insulative and fire-resistant properties, both of which are desired in a house. Before we knew asbestos caused cancers and other diseases, it made a lot of sense to include it in many different building materials, including bathroom tiles.
