However, to remove the lining would require you to tear-out the line anyway. And if you have to do this, you need to go back with new stuff. ductboard is the most cost-effective material. And it's easier to work with (you can hide mistakes, which is impossible with rigid sheet-metal!). I have learned through mold removal courses that the only sure-fire way to rid the home after contamination is a new system. Even though you say you have solved the problem, in reality you're circulationg mold spores around every minute your fan runs.<br><b>References : </b><br>15-yr HVAC Tech.

If it is some place where it is accessable there are a couple things you can try. Try to keep the humidity in your house under 45%, ultraviolet light also kills mold, and the last thing I can think of is keeping the temperature under 75 degrees, if you can't seem to halt the growth with that, you might want to remove the insulation, and wrap the outside of the box.<br><b>References : </b><br> Have you been able to tell exactly how for the mold spread is?
