Eager to keep mold contamination from becoming either a boondoggle or a quagmire of rules that would hamper normal HVAC work, air conditioning contractors are actively trying to shape proposed mold laws in both Florida and Texas.
Bills pending in both states would require testing or other qualification, as well as registration or licensing of mold detecting and mold remediation companies and individuals. Contractors bills in both states are working to ensure that HVAC contractors, plumbers, and electricians won’t run afoul of the law if they find and clean up small patches of mold during normal service and replacement work.
