And You Wonder Why Your Home Smells Like Wet Tennis Shoes?

At a recent Clearwater Home Inspection, I could smell a mold-like odor the moment I walked in the door. Here’s a look at the underside of the coils in the air handler. The black stuff you see built up on the coil is a heavy growth of mold-like substances and Heaven only knows what else. This is an extreme case. You need to have a contractor clean these coils on a regular basis.

Air handlers are the primary source of mold in a modern home.

Here’s what a normally dirty coil looks like.
