Most people think about mold as something they can see. A dark stain on a wall, a patch behind the toilet. What they don't think about is the mold growing inside their AC system, invisible, cycling through every room in the house every time the unit runs.
That's the scenario FixMold finds most often during assessments in South Florida. By the time mold shows up on surfaces throughout a property, the HVAC system has usually been distributing it for weeks or months. The unit that's supposed to keep the air clean becomes the thing spreading contamination everywhere.
Florida state guidelines are clear on who can fix it: mold on central AC units, coils, intakes, and ventilation systems must be removed by a state licensed mold remediator. A standard AC technician is not licensed for this work and cannot legally do it. FixMold holds dual state licensure as both mold remediator (MRSR2709) and mold assessor (MRSA2521), with dedicated protocols built specifically for HVAC, vent, and duct contamination.

FixMold focuses on eliminating mold from your environment.
But for some individuals, recovery doesn’t stop there.
Even after successful remediation, the body may continue responding to past exposure. In these cases, a structured, medically guided approach may be necessary to support full recovery.
No. Florida state guidelines require mold on central AC units, coils, intakes, and ventilation systems to be removed by a state licensed mold remediator. A standard AC license does not cover this work. FixMold holds the required licensure for both mold assessment and remediation.
Musty smells that get stronger when the AC kicks on are the most common indicator. Other signs include allergy or respiratory symptoms that improve when you leave the house, visible dark staining around registers or on surfaces near the air handler, and smells that persist no matter how often you clean or change filters. Air sampling with lab analysis gives you a definitive answer.
Often yes. An HVAC system that's been circulating contaminated air deposits spores on surfaces throughout the property. FixMold assesses the full building before scoping any remediation to make sure every source is identified, not just the one inside the system.
Most residential systems are done in a single day. Larger commercial systems or properties with extensive duct networks take longer. You'll have a full schedule and written scope before any work starts.
Change filters every 60 to 90 days, get coils professionally cleaned once a year, keep condensate lines clear, and maintain indoor humidity below 60% year-round. If your ductwork runs through the attic, FixMold's Solar Airflow ventilation system addresses the root cause of recurring condensation in attic-run systems.
