Derek Cole explains why your AC smells musty when it runs: the dehumidification cycle creates water that pools in the condensate drain and evaporator coil, where mold and bacteria grow. Cleaning these parts stops the smell.
We hear this all the time. Every time my AC comes on, I get a smell. I get a musty odor, but it only happens when my AC is running. What is going on here? We're going to talk about it, and news flash, it's not random, it's your system. So what happens is you have an air conditioner, it is dehumidifying every single time it comes on. What happens, what that means is there's water being produced as it dehumidifies.
