Mold & Mildew Duct Treatment in Palm Bay, FL

If you smell a musty 'dirty sock' odor when the AC kicks on, see black specks around your supply vents, or notice unexplained allergy flare-ups — there's a strong chance mold is growing inside your Florida ductwork. Our antimicrobial duct treatment uses EPA-registered fog to kill mold spores at the source, then we sanitize the entire HVAC system so it stops recirculating spores into every room.

Bastion Duct Solutions provides air duct and dryer vent cleaning across Palm Bay and the broader Space Coast — Bayside Lakes, Port Malabar, Melbourne, West Melbourne, Malabar, and surrounding Brevard County neighborhoods. Palm Bay has Florida's largest concentration of 1970s and 1980s GD Corp tract homes — most still running original metal trunk lines with flex-duct add-ons that sag, tear, and trap dust at the low points. Add salt air off the Indian River, sandy-soil tracking from Sebastian Inlet beach trips, and KSC launch particulate from up the coast, and you get duct interiors that need cleaning on a 2–3 year cycle instead of the national 3–5 year average. Every Palm Bay job uses truck-mounted negative-air HEPA vacuums and before/after photos of every register.

Our process in Palm Bay

1. Inspect for Mold: Camera inspection of the supply runs, evaporator coil, and return plenum to confirm what we're dealing with.
2. Deep Clean First: Mold treatment is only effective on clean surfaces — we always recommend pairing with full duct cleaning.
3. Antimicrobial Fog: EPA-registered antimicrobial introduced as a fine fog while the blower runs, coating every interior surface.
4. Dwell & Ventilate: 30-minute dwell time, then we ventilate the home before handing it back to you.

Mold & Mildew Duct Treatment FAQs — Palm Bay

Is the antimicrobial fog safe for kids and pets?

Yes — we use EPA-registered formulas approved for occupied spaces. We still ventilate the home after treatment and ask you to wait 30 minutes before re-entering.

Will this fix a major mold problem in my AC?

Surface mold in the ducts, yes. If mold is growing on the evaporator coil itself or there's water damage in the air handler, we'll flag it and recommend HVAC service first.

How long does the treatment last?

Palm Bay humidity means spores can return — most homes benefit from re-treatment every 2–3 years alongside their regular duct cleaning.

Do I need a mold test first?

Not for surface treatment. If you suspect a structural mold problem, hire a licensed mold assessor before any cleaning.
