Undersized HVAC System

If the size of your air conditioning system is not proportionate to the room in which it is installed, then the system will not produce an output that is effective enough. Because of this, the system has to run for a significantly longer period of time than it is intended to in order to maintain the desired level of coolness in your home.

What are the consequences of having an air conditioning unit that is too small?

Air conditioners that are too small for the room will have a difficult time ever getting the space to the desired temperature and, as a result, will not go through their normal on and off cycles. This additional wear and tear can shorten the life of your air conditioner, which may result in higher repair costs for you.

Can insufficient airflow lead to mold growth?

Mold might begin to grow in areas with little ventilation. If you mix wetness with restricted air circulation, you will produce a humid and damp environment. This is the ideal setting for mold to develop and thrive, so it is important to avoid creating this environment. Examine the area for telltale symptoms of mold growth, such as the appearance of black, white, or brown spots on the walls or a musty stench.

What are some telltale signs that my air conditioner might not be powerful enough?

If you have trouble keeping your home's temperature below 79 degrees, you almost certainly have an air conditioner that is too small for the space. In the past, air conditioning systems were developed to bring a room's temperature from excruciatingly hot to excruciatingly cold in a single, unbroken cycle.

Is there a device that can identify the presence of mold in walls?

In order to begin the process of having your home treated for dampness, contaminated plaster, and spore growth, you will first need a mold test kit. Mold kits can detect spores in every room of your home; some of them can even go inside your HVAC unit. Mold kits can typically provide you with preliminary results within a few hours of using them.

Do mold spores exist in the air at all times?

Mold spores are always present in the air that we breathe, but only substantial mold contamination is potentially harmful to our health. Mold spores in the air can trigger allergic reactions and respiratory difficulties.
