An cooling system coil will also get dirtier faster in a house with an existing mold problem
My friends don’t guess that indoor moisture control is pressing, but every one of us live in the subtropics where it gets up to 100% humidity even when the sun is shining. It’s tough to dry off while you’re perspiring when the air is full of so much water. Compared to the feeling of dry heat in desert climates, our heat feels like a literal blanket on the skin. In lower temperatures it can be a source of comfort, but once you’re reaching the 77s while I was in a afternoon of full sunlight, that blanket feels like a straight jacket. Naturally this moistures gets into your house from outside, whenever doors plus windows are opened or in your roof vents. I like to use a dehumidifier in my house to address the moisture that gets in from outside. Out of the few people I suppose who own dehumidifiers, almost all of these people only use them for their basements plus not their dining room or dining room. In general, it’s more respected to find people who only rely on their cooling systems for regulating their home’s moisture levels. I tell my friends that they should at least run their cooling systems in the summer time if they won’t use dehumidifiers, otherwise they’re letting their homes get over 72% humidity inside. Mold is no joke plus can poison you, sometimes requiring hospitalization. It ruins everything you own that is porous, from books plus paperwork to furniture, drywall, plus clothing. An cooling system coil will also get dirtier faster in a house with an existing mold problem. Since evaporator coils are always wet by nature of their position in the refrigeration cycle, they are always prone to microbial buildup.
