Get rid of Musty, Smoke, and Pet Odors from your HVAC System
If you smell some strange, musty odours coming from your HVAC system, it may be more than just an inconvenience; it could be a warning sign. These smells, like that of a dirty sock or a damp towel, could mean something inside your ducts or equipment is not right. Left alone, they can affect indoor air quality, make your space uncomfortable, and even impact your health.
At Mr. Dirty Ducts, we help Middle Tennessee homes and businesses find and fix the source of HVAC odors so your air stays clean, fresh, and healthy.
What Those HVAC Smells Are Trying to Tell You
Different odors often point to different problems. A musty smell might mean moisture buildup or mold in your ducts. A smoky smell could come from burnt dust or electrical components. Pet odors could be caused by dander, fur, or bacteria trapped deep inside vents and filters.
Even if the smell seems mild, it’s usually a sign your system needs attention. Once those odors start circulating through your home or office, they spread fast and masking them with sprays or candles won’t help.
Mold, Mildew, and That Musty Odor
If your air smells damp or earthy, it’s often due to mold or mildew growing inside the system.
Mildew looks like patches of white or gray fungus, which can commonly occur in crawl spaces or ducts that haven’t been cleaned for a long time due to humid weather in Middle Tennessee.
On the other hand, mold growth can change colors from black to green and cause a much larger infestation than mildew.
Mold spores can also travel through your HVAC system, which can cause allergy symptoms or headaches. Regular air duct cleaning and moisture control are key to stopping this before it gets worse.

When Smoke or Burnt Smells Come from Your Vents
A faint burning smell when your heat first turns on can be normal, as it could be just dust burning off the coils. But if this smell persists for longer, it could mean a very thick layer of dust has settled on different components of the HVAC system, like the compressor, condenser, thermal expansion valve, air handler, evaporator coil, and blower, terminal units, chillers. If it starts smelling like melting plastic or electrical wiring, you should immediately shut off your system and call a professional.
It could be a sign of a wiring issue, an overheating motor, or insulation damage problems that can quickly get serious if ignored.
Why Pet Odors Keep Coming Back
Even with regular cleaning, pet dander, fur, and oils can build up inside your HVAC system. Once that happens, every time the air turns on, it spreads the odor around again. Deep cleaning your ducts and replacing air filters can make a big difference. Our deodorizing and sanitizing process removes bacteria and odor sources at their root.
