Where to look first in Winchester homes
| Room | Why it matters | First step |
|---|---|---|
| AC air handler and ducts | Las Vegas has a normal of 79 days a year at or above 100 degrees5, so the AC runs long and makes a lot of condensate. | If you know or suspect the system has mold, EPA says do not run it, because it could spread mold through the house6. |
| Bathroom and shower | Condensation on walls, windows or pipes is a sign of high humidity7. | Scrub mold off hard surfaces like tile with detergent and water, then dry it fully8. |
| Kitchen sink and dishwasher | CDC lists leaks around pipes as a place mold grows9. | Shut the supply valve, empty the cabinet and let air reach the wet wood. |
