Strange as it sounds, no bleach for mold remediation.

Very big misconseption, bleach does not kill mold, it antagonize's it! It
may *visably go away for a while but it will come back 3X as bad. Bleach
is heavier than water, so it can't get out of the line at the P- trap.
(The part sticking out of the ground outside.) So it will slowly damage
the PVC pipe and also solidify and cause a blockage. Put a cup of White
Vinegar in you line every month to three months through your
safe-t-switch,or an access Tee you may have in the line or seperate the
pipe at the point your A/C tech made in your line and coupled with vinal
tube the last time your line backed up and they cleared it! Plus, if you
spill vinegar on you or around your unit, it will just smell like a salad!
Or you could be Pro- Active and purchase a $30. Stinger shop-vac at your
local home/hardware store and 2 or 3 times a year put the suction end of
the vacuum on the exit side of the pipe outside and let it run for 5 to 10
minutes. If the hose is doing a small dance, your clear. if it is not, you
may have a blockage and will need to force air from the air handler side
out while the vacuum is running.

And if you read further its applying to soft absorbant building
materials, it states that in a few days it will come back worse, that
is a total bullS statement. It also states removal of the molded
product is best. No, stopping the moist enviorment is best. Ive used
it on certain shaded concrete areas for years and i can keep it mold
free with a yearly spraying. Just because its posted on the web you
think all you read is true? This BS post, was likely put together by
mold remediation companies suckering people into demolition,
demolition without even addressing what caused the mold in the first
place, remove excessive moisture and mold becomes inactive and dies.
Of course you didnt see it says Hard Surfaces are ok with bleach, just
as PVC and AC systems are hard and nonporus. Read between the lines
on that bs site, I guarntee Bleach kills mold, by removing its oxygen,
it only comes back because the environment that caused it remains the
same. Mold Spores are everywhere, airborn.
