The Top Hatter understands the potential health risks associated with mold.
Discovering mold in your home can be a stressful experience. At The Top Hatter, we understand the potential health risks associated with mold and are here to help you tackle the issue.
In our quest to offer the best solution, we have developed our laminar air flow hood, which helps us test our product in Petry dishes. After extensive research, we discovered that our sanitizer, which we use in our standard cleaning process, can effectively kill mold spores, but not live active mold. Therefore, we developed a potent mold treatment that does the job!

Our mold treatment comprises three parts. First, we kill and remove the mold from your air ducts using a highly contained cleaning process to prevent the dispersion of mold spores into the air. Next, we apply a mold stain eraser and mold inhibitor throughout your ductwork to inhibit mold growth. Please note that while our inhibitor does not prevent mold growth, it goes a long way in hindering mold from growing.
As much as we love to work with customers, mold remediation requires that you vacate your home during the cleaning process. Our team is equipped with full PPE gear for their safety while treating your home.
Before starting the cleaning process, it is crucial to identify the mold’s cause. No matter how well we clean, if the mold’s source is not addressed, it will keep recurring. Mold requires food and moisture to thrive and grow, so identifying the mold’s source and what it is feeding on is crucial in resolving the mold issue’s root cause.
We have worked with numerous property managers, general contractors, and restoration companies using our mold treatment, giving us insights on how to prevent mold in your home and what to do if you find mold in your home.
Here are some mold prevention tips:
-Use exhaust fans and shower with doors closed. This helps pull moisture out of the room, which mold needs to grow.
-Ensure your AC unit is serviced regularly to prevent moisture from traveling through the system.
-Make sure your home is well insulated to prevent condensation from forming inside ductwork.
If you find mold:
-Please do not disturb it! Disturbing mold aerosolizes it, making it airborne, which can cause health hazards. It’s best to call in professionals to guide you on the next steps.
-Check vent covers for black round spots, as mold loves paint.
-Consider getting a mold test before and after our treatment. While we don’t offer this service, we can recommend someone who can help.
Lastly, if a service company claims to have found mold while conducting a service, get a second opinion, especially if they offer to treat it on the spot. It’s better to be safe than sorry.

How do I know if I have mold in my ducts?

The first indication that mold may be present could be a mildew smell.
It is also good to get checked for mold if you have had a moisture problem in your home.
For us here in the hotter climates, the goal in mind with our air ducts is to keep the hot air that’s outside away from the cool air running inside, so our duct work has insulation on the outside, giving a flat smooth surface to clean. So, just like you would clean your kitchen floor, the best way to clean this type of ductwork is by sweeping and mopping. Our region-specific cleaning method includes vacuuming the loose debris using a heavily filtered vacuum and mopping out all of the supply ductwork with a hospital-grade sanitizer using a tool we call a swab.
What causes mold in air ducts?
Is air duct mold treatment safe for my family and pets?
Will cleaning air ducts improve performance?
There isn’t much evidence available that shows cleaning the air ducts alone will help the performance of your HVAC system.
However, by cleaning the coils, which are included in our air duct cleaning process, you will help your AC system work more efficiently and have a longer life.
What type of duct cleaning is best?
This really depends on the type of ductwork you have. Across most of the county, most air ducts are built with the goal of keeping the cold air that’s outside away from the warm air running through the inside, so the ductwork is normally insulated inside. The best methods to clean this type of ductwork are either Rotary or Spinning Brush or Negative Air air duct cleaning methods.

How long should it take to clean air ducts?
The length of time it takes for each house caries depending on the size of the house and condition of the duct work. We have been doing this for 35 years so we know the average amount of time we will spend on a home.
For example, A home that is between 1500-2000 sq ft will usually take between 2.5-3 hours for a 2-guy crew. If we come across something that will take some extra time, our price will not change for you.
