Mold
\ncan be a problem in the summer along the more humid coastal areas of California.
\nIt poses health risks to individuals and is difficult to eradicate. You may
\nwant to check with your condo association and review your lease to determine
\nwho is responsible for dealing with mold in your condo, your association or
\nyou. Check your condo
\ninsurance in California<\/a> <\/strong>to see
\nif mold is an exclusion.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Mold
\nmay be difficult to locate as it tends to thrive in damp, humid environments
\nthat have little or no exposure to light. It may grow under carpets and
\nfloorboards, between walls, in the ceiling or inside an air conditioning unit
\nwhere you are not able to see it. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

A
\nleak in your condo in the past may lead to the growth of mold in the future.
\nYou may want to check areas of your condo that show signs of past water damage.
\nIt is possible that mold could be growing in these areas. Inhaling mold spores
\nmay cause respiratory and nervous system illnesses that may even be
\nlife-threatening.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Should
\nyou have a leak in your condo, have it repaired as quickly as possible to avoid
\nthe growth of mold. You may consider purchasing mold control products to place
\nin strategic places around your condo where moisture tends to gather.  <\/span>Also, repairing leaky faucets and grouting
\nand sealing ceramic tiles properly may help prevent mold. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Are
\nyou aware of the types of damage covered by your condo insurance in California<\/em>? Some standard policy exclusions
\nmight be able to be available as an optional add-on or via an endorsement, so
\nit can pay to have a good understanding of the coverage available.<\/span><\/p>\n
