Signs
When to book indoor air quality

- Dust builds up again soon after cleaning

- Allergy symptoms that seem worse indoors
The visit
What to expect
- You describe what you are noticing, such as moisture, smells, dust or allergy concerns.
- The technician checks humidity, airflow, the filter, and the condition of the coil, drain pan and ductwork.
- They look for the source first, such as a dirty coil, a leaking return duct pulling in attic air, or a system that does not run long enough to dry the air.
- They explain the options, which can include system adjustments, better filtration, a whole-home dehumidifier or ventilation changes.
- Any new equipment is installed and set up, and you are shown how to look after it.
Florida notes
Indoor Air Quality in Florida’s climate
- Florida's outdoor air is humid for much of the year, so controlling moisture indoors is usually the biggest air quality issue in a Florida home.
- Mold and mildew grow where moisture sits, including drain pans, coils and ducts in a warm attic. Keeping the drain clear and the coil clean removes common growth spots.
- Newer, tightly built homes can hold moisture in, while leaky ducts in older homes can pull in hot, damp attic air. Both are fixable, but the fixes are different.
- If an air handler, ducts or insulation got wet in a hurricane or flood, have them checked for mold before running the system normally.

Questions
Indoor Air Quality in Lutz, answered
Who provides indoor air quality in Lutz, FL?

Will a better air filter help with allergies?
It can. A higher-efficiency filter captures smaller particles, but it has to suit your system, because a filter that is too restrictive can cut airflow. Ask a technician which filter your system can handle.
Do I need a whole-home dehumidifier in Florida?
Not always. A correctly sized, well-maintained AC often controls humidity on its own. A dehumidifier helps when the house stays humid even with a healthy system, such as in mild weather when the AC runs less.
Why does my house smell musty when the AC turns on?
Usually because moisture on the coil, in the drain pan or in the ducts has let mold or mildew grow. A technician can find and clean the source, which works better than masking the smell.
