Your heating and cooling system does more than regulate temperature—it also pushes air throughout your home. Your furnace should not be damaged by water or mold! The entire area around your HVAC needs to be a healthy environment within your home or business. At A-1 Heating & Air Conditioning in Kelowna, we emphasize regular HVAC inspections to identify any water damage and mold growth which might compromise comfort, health, and property.
Why Water and Mold Can Become a Problem/h2>
HVAC systems can accumulate moisture from condensation, leaks, or clogged drain lines. Over time, in older furnaces and air conditioning units trapped water might create the perfect environment for mold growth, which can affect indoor air quality and trigger allergies, respiratory issues, or unpleasant odours. Water damage caused by condensation that is not fully contained within the furnace or air conditioner, or a leak from a broken part, may harm basement floors, walls, and insulation, leading to costly repairs.
Key Inspection Areas
During a professional inspection, our A-1 technicians check:
Drain lines and pans for blockages or leaks
Humidifiers and condensers for proper operation
Air ducts for moisture buildup or signs of mold
Filters that are clean and allowing for proper airflow and preventing excess condensation

Routine HVAC inspections (try our economical maintenance plans for further savings!) not only protect your physical property but may also identify wants that you can improve your HVAC energy efficiency. Identifying and addressing any minor issues early prevents emergencies, extends the life of your system, and keeps energy bills under control.
