Question: Gas Stand Alone Heater and Mold

[Guest guest]

All, Would anyone know if mold would grow inside a standing gas heating with

piping that goes into the wall. I was asked specifically about the heater. I

would think if there is any moisture in the wall with the heat piped into the

wall then probably in the wall, but would it grow in the heater itself. What do

you think

If you could give me your opinion on this I would appreciate it.. Darlene

*where does the piping go?*

I assume the piping is a chimney flue. If the chimney flue goes through a

wall or attic and has leaks in it into that space or the holes that go into

the wall connect to an area with mold yes, you could end up getting mold

that way...
