Once they traced and fixed the leak, everything returned to normal
I could no longer tolerate the stench in my house. The fact that I had cleaned it thoroughly the past week and nothing changed perturbed me more. I shared my frustrations with my sister, Naomi, and she suggested hiring professional cleaners. My mom overheard our conversation and was curious about the source of the smell. She asked me to trace it before I could take action. While the foul smell was all over the house, it was strongest near the indoor heating and cooling equipment. Before hiring cleaners, mom suggested I call an HVAC professional. Reluctantly, I called the number on my fridge and the corporation sent a team of three workers. Nothing could have prepared me for the reality of the situation in my home. It turns out that the HVAC equipment had several complications that were causing the awful smells. First, there was a copious amount of mold forming in the plugged drain pan. Every time I turned the air conditioning off, the moldy smell would travel into the house. Besides that, there was the issue of that rotten-egg smell. The contractors suspected a leaking gas that was finding its ways into the air conditioning. They were excited I had noticed it in good time, as this could actually be disastrous. They drained and unplugged the drain pan. They also cleaned and disinfected the section to prevent continued mold growth. The experts asked me to switch off all the gas sources in the property and contact the gas corporation instantaneously. Once they traced and fixed the leak, everything returned to normal. They promised to come back for further system repairs, and cleaning once the gas leak was sorted out.
