Examine the HVAC system for leaks

**Leaks in the HVAC system**

Moisture can cause significant damage to your home. It can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and other problems. If you suspect that your HVAC system is leaking, it’s important to have it checked out by a professional as soon as possible. Here are a few things you can do to check for moisture under your house:

Inspect the condensate drain line

The condensate drain line is a small pipe that drains condensation from the HVAC system. If the drain line is clogged, condensation can build up and leak out of the system. Check the drain line for any clogs or blockages. If you find a clog, clear it out using a wire or a wet/dry vacuum.

Check the evaporator coil

The evaporator coil is located in the indoor unit of the HVAC system. It is responsible for cooling the air that circulates through the system. If the evaporator coil is leaking, refrigerant can leak out of the system. Refrigerant is a harmful gas, so it’s important to have any leaks repaired immediately.

Inspect the refrigerant lines

The refrigerant lines are the copper pipes that connect the indoor and outdoor units of the HVAC system. If the refrigerant lines are leaking, refrigerant can leak out of the system. Refrigerant is a harmful gas, so it’s important to have any leaks repaired immediately.

Check the outdoor unit

The outdoor unit of the HVAC system is located outside of your home. It is responsible for cooling the refrigerant that circulates through the system. If the outdoor unit is leaking, refrigerant can leak out of the system. Refrigerant is a harmful gas, so it’s important to have any leaks repaired immediately.

If you find any leaks in your HVAC system, it’s important to have them repaired as soon as possible. Leaks can lead to serious damage to your home, so it’s important to take care of them right away.
