AC & Air Duct Mold Removal in Pinellas Park, FL

What happens when you call

Calling the number on this page connects you with an independent local company that works on mold in AC systems. Expect questions about the type of home, where the air handler sits, what you're noticing and how long it's been going on. The company should then look at the cabinet, drain pan, coil area and the ducts it can reach, and for a mobile home, the duct line under the floor. It should tell you which parts it can clean, which have to be replaced and whether an HVAC contractor needs to repair the coil, blower or drain. If you want an independent check afterward, Florida law keeps that with a separate mold assessor, since a company can't assess and remediate the same structure within 12 months.

What affects cost

Angi reports a typical Tampa-area range of $3,225 to $10,750 for mold remediation in HVAC systems, and HomeAdvisor puts Tampa mold testing at $327 to $903 if you add an assessor. The biggest drivers are:

• Amount of duct to replace, especially long belly ducts under a manufactured home
• Condition of the cabinet liner, pan and coil
• Access in closets, attics or crawl spaces under the home
• How much containment the layout requires
• Any drywall or subfloor damaged by an overflowing pan

Local conditions

Pinellas Park's homes are older than average for the region. The median year built is 1978, and about 57 percent of homes went up before 1980. Mobile and manufactured homes account for roughly 15 percent of units, and about 31 percent of occupied homes are rented. That mix means many systems have older drain pans and duct runs, and many ducts sit under floors where leaks go unseen. Like the rest of Pinellas County, the city also lived through Milton in 2024, after which the county told owners of flooded homes to remove wet contents quickly to prevent mold.

The City of Pinellas Park runs its own building department at 6051 78th Avenue N and issues permits for repairs inside city limits. Renters with a leak the landlord hasn't fixed can contact the City of Pinellas Park Neighborhood Services Department at 7780 60th Street. The Florida Department of Health in Pinellas County has a location in the city for health questions.
