If upon your initial inspection you discover rampant mold and mildew in the air conditioner do not attempt to clean it. Condensation forms in the coils and ducts as cool air circulates through the system creating a habitat for moisture loving mold. You may also be able to see the presence of mold around drip pans air ducts and within intake vents. Reassemble the air conditioning unit and plug it back into its power source.

Replace a window ac unit that s filled with heavy mold. Let the unit filter grille and metal cover dry completely. Allow the solution to sit on these surfaces for approximately 10 minutes then rinse with water and a damp cloth.
