Indoor Air Quality in Charleston: what's different

Indoor Air Quality work in Charleston follows the local climate. Humidity drives most comfort complaints here. Leaky attic ducts pull in hot, wet air, and mold on coils, in drain pans and on supply registers is common when systems are not maintained.

A common Charleston pattern: humidity and mold. High humidity makes dehumidification and duct sealing important, especially in raised historic homes where crawl space air can be pulled into the system.

The indoor air quality services Charleston homeowners ask for most are UV Lights for HVAC. Coil-sterilizing UV-C lamps for musty systems and drain pan growth.

The City of Charleston Building Inspections Division issues mechanical permits, and the Board of Architectural Review may need to approve visible equipment in historic districts. South Carolina licenses mechanical contractors through the Contractor's Licensing Board.
