China, 17th Dec 2024, – Deye’s study of USA’s moldiest cities reveals 150 cities in the United States that are prone to mold. The study underscores the growing importance of indoor air quality and dehumidification in maintaining healthier living spaces, particularly in humid and mold-prone regions.
Hidden mold is silently threatening homes across America, even in cities least expected. While often dismissed as a minor issue, mold exposure can have serious health consequences, ranging from chronic skin conditions to dangerous respiratory infections and potentially life-threatening lung inflammation.
To dig deeper into this issue, Deye combined environmental and climate data from multiple research sources with a survey asking 3,000 homeowners if they experienced mold in their homes over the past year. The result is a detailed list of the 150 moldiest cities in America—places where residents are most likely to deal with mold-related health concerns.
The report reveals that cities in the southeastern United States rank among the highest for mold growth due to persistent humidity and warm temperatures. States such as Florida, Texas, and Louisiana dominate the list, with cities experiencing conditions conducive to mold development throughout much of the year.
Fort Lauderdale, Florida, topped the list as the moldiest city in the U.S., followed closely by New Orleans, Louisiana, and Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The combination of consistent rain, warm weather, and poor ventilation in older infrastructure creates ideal conditions for mold proliferation in these areas.
- The top 10 moldiest cities are as follows:
Fort Lauderdale, Florida
New Orleans, Louisiana
Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Orlando, Florida
Tampa, Florida
Miami, Florida
Biloxi, Mississippi
Shreveport, Louisiana
Gainesville, Florida
Lafayette, Louisiana
“This study serves as a valuable resource for homeowners, businesses, and policymakers alike,” said Allen Dong, Spokesperson of Deye. “Mold-related issues are a pressing concern for millions of people, particularly in regions where the climate exacerbates indoor humidity levels. Understanding which cities face the greatest challenges enables solutions to be implemented effectively.”
The data also provides insights into seasonal variations, revealing how mold growth peaks during spring and summer months when humidity is at its highest. Cities with inadequate ventilation, older infrastructure, and higher rainfall were also identified as having increased susceptibility to mold issues.
Hidden mold can silently threaten homes, contributing to chronic skin conditions, respiratory infections, and severe lung inflammation. The report emphasizes the importance of technology-driven solutions, such as dehumidification systems and advanced air quality controls, in reducing indoor mold growth. Effective management of humidity can drastically lower mold proliferation while promoting healthier living conditions.
“Most of people don’t realize how severely mold can affect both health and homes,” says Allen Dong of Deye. “The good news is that simple steps like fixing leaky pipes promptly, running bathroom fans during showers, and using a dehumidifier to keep indoor humidity below 60% can make a huge difference. Even in the most mold-prone cities across the country, these basic preventive measures can stop mold before it becomes a problem.”
Deye, known for its innovation in intelligent and energy-efficient technologies, continues to invest in research and development to address environmental challenges worldwide. The company’s focus on providing solutions that are energy-saving, sustainable, and health-focused has positioned it as a leader in tackling issues such as indoor mold and poor air quality.
“As industries and governments become more aware of the impact of indoor air quality, the future will see increased collaboration toward healthier and safer living spaces,” Allen Dong added. “Deye remains committed to advancing technologies that make a meaningful difference, not just in the United States but globally.”
The study’s release reflects Deye’s dedication to identifying environmental challenges and offering innovative solutions to combat them. By leveraging its expertise in environmental systems, the company continues to contribute to healthier and more sustainable living environments worldwide.
