The air conditioner stopped smelling after it was cleaned
I have a lot of sensitivities to orders.
I’ve been told that I have a nose that’s much stronger than an average person.
Honestly the olfactory sense of a human being can range quite a bit over the normal spectrum. Two people that are considered normal for their noses are comparable to a person with 20/20 vision versus somebody who is legally blind. Having a sensitive nose is both a gift and a curse at the same time. The one hand it’s really frustrating because you get exposed to odors that most people don’t even notice. And things can bother you a lot quicker and more intensely than it would another person. That’s why at times I’ve wondered whether or not it’d be better if I had a weaker sense of smell. Recently I was struggling with an odor coming out of my air conditioner. I kept wondering if there was a mildew smell, but I wasn’t sure. I called my HVAC supplier and they sent out a technician two days later to inspect my air conditioner. Just like I suspected, there was microbial and fungal build up on the evaporator coil. After the technician cleaned my air handler and got rid of the mold, the other vanished completely. Now I don’t have a nasty order when I run my air conditioner. It’s a huge relief to get this odor taken care of and I can run my HVAC system without having to worry about getting triggered by the odor. I wish the HVAC company would clean my air conditioner regularly so this sort of problem doesn’t happen again in the future.
