Guest guest Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 I have molds in my central air/heating system the supply and return ducts (HVAC). A professional company needs to do the proper remediation on a system like this. I am on the 6th floor of a 9 floor building, and no one has come in to do the correct and professional remediation on the system, its throughout the entire building. A regular manintenance team for the building is not qualified or licensed to take this problem and try to remediate it. Toxins dead or alive will grow as long as there is food for them to grow on, moisture, etc. It is very difficult to remediate and very expensive to remediate a 9 floor building with such severe problems, they would have to more than likely tear the building down because it is not only in the HVAC system, it is thoughout apartments, hallways, etc. which affect over 100 people in just this one building that I am in, and not even talking about the other 9 floor building on the side of me. HUD refuses to believe there is a real issue here that is affecting so many people. They don't want to loose money, by having to house all of us elsewhere, tear down the property since it is such a health hazard it won't happen and we will continue to be sick and worsen. This is another reason why eveyone needs to speak up regarding their stories and real life situations. We need to make the officials in government, etc. to move and take action, not sit or stand and sweep it away like it doesn't exist. Fight for your rights, express freedom of speech, get those stories out there because if we all don't than no action will occur and we will continue to get sick, and our existing health will worsen. Mail those stories/comments in to ABC and don't forget to get your stories to Letitia...the more they are out there, the more recognition, help, and action we will get. I know that I am tired of being ill, and my health worsening on a daily basis. Fight for what you believe in.....Darlene > > This is True Miss Cline she live in a HUD Retirement Housing first floor I Think there's 4 Floors there her ceiling covered with mold in her efficiency it's awfull and they clame they clean it but..................I wouldn't go in there I'm going to get her story again they other elder died about two weeks ago she had sewage and mold. > > They just moved her to a different apartment she was 102 years old I agree with Mr. May and You bbw. > > Elvira > > > [] Re: Question on Mold found in AC unit > > > Is this a through-the-window or through-the-wall > air conditioner??
