The Hidden Health Crisis in Lockhart Homes

In Lockhart, South Carolina, common duct contaminants include mold spores that trigger severe respiratory reactions, dust mites that cause year-round allergies, volatile organic compounds off-gassing from household products, pollen and outdoor allergens pulled inside through your HVAC intake, and pet dander that embeds in duct linings. Your family breathes this recirculated air for up to 22 hours daily.
