I find this procedure from god’s word, the bible, works best for killing mildew:
To purify the house of mildew take two birds, cedar wood, scarlet yarn and hyssop. Kill one of the birds over fresh water in a clay pot. Then take the cedar wood, hyssop, scarlet yarn and the live bird, dip them into the blood of the dead bird and fresh water, and sprinkle the house 7 times. Then he is to release the live bird in the open fields outside the town. In this way it will be clean.” [Leviticus. 14:48-53] -

Pretty gross. A friend of mine had to maintain his aunt’s house, an early postwar Levittown style cape. Instead of slab-radiant heating, it had FHA. They could never figure out why the sheet rock kept getting moldy; I’ll bet it was something like this. Even if these ducts don’t leak, they probably do a good job of heating the ground. FHA is definitely the Spam of the heating world; the price is right, but it’s the only thing that is.

Last night my vents flooded with water (slab apartment). Last winter my son had a horrid cough when we moved in. I assumed it was just winter illnesses. The apartment was empty a year before I moved in.
My question is, is there anything I can do or do I just need to move? I haven’t contacted the complex yet.
The place was built in the 50′s I think.
Any help is appreciated.
