We have a new Reem air handler for the A/C and all new flexible ductwork that is about 9 months old. This is all located in the attic. When we started the A/C for the first time this year we noticed a faint smell of almost like flowers or plants coming from the vents in the kitchen (above the sink) and in the bathroom. It has gotten progressively worse and now the air coming out of some of the other vents smell like this. Our local Heating and A/C pros are telling me its mold (which is what I figured) and are recommending a Sanuvox UV purifier to kill this smell and any mold that may be growing in the system. They can not tell me WHY it is happenning though.I read on a thread from 04 that this could be Dirty Socks Syndrome and that the only way to fix it is with some kind of coated coil.
Does anyone have any experience with this and if so please lead me in the right direction. I hate to have to spend a ton more money when I just did last year.
Thanks,
Jimi
